Numerical Investigation of the Undrained Compression and Pull-Out Capacity of Suction Foundations in Clay

This paper presents the results of three-dimensional finite difference analysis of suction foundations in uniform and non-uniform clays under undrained conditions. The Tresca criterion was used to simulate the stress-strain response. The bearing capacity of the foundations was investigated, with the...
