Analysis of bearing capacity and deformation of unsaturated expansive soil foundations under flood-induced lateral seepage
To investigate the impact of flood-induced seepage on foundation bearing performance, a comprehensive numerical analysis was conducted on the vertical ultimate bearing capacity of a strip foundation resting on unsaturated expansive soil. Utilizing the ABAQUS platform with the Modified Cam-Clay model, the coupled hydro-...
