Example 8: Rigid square raft on Isotropic elastic-half space medium
Description of the problem
To verify the mathematical model of
ELPLA
for rigid square raft, the results of a rigid
square raft obtained by other analytical solutions from
Kany
(1974),
Fraser/
Wardle
(1976),
Chow
(1987), Li/
Dempesy
(1988) and
Stark
(1990) (Section 5.4, page 114) are compared with
those obtained by
ELPLA.
The vertical displacement
w
[m] of a rigid square raft on Isotropic
elastic-half space medium may be evaluated by ..........
