Lateral load bearing capacity model for piles in cohesive soils (2014)
Book Chapter
Ahangar Asr, A., Javadi, A., Johari, A., & Chen, Y. (2014). Lateral load bearing capacity model for piles in cohesive soils. In A. Javadi, & M. Hussain (Eds.), Proceedings of the 22nd UK National Conference of the Association for Computational Mechanics in Engineering (264-267). University of Exeter

In this research work an evolutionary approach is proposed to develop a structured polynomial model for predicting the lateral load bearing capacity of piles in undrained conditions. The proposed polynomial regression technique is an evolutionary dat... Read More about Lateral load bearing capacity model for piles in cohesive soils.

Book Chapter

This chapter makes explicit the association of certain art forms and art
works to trans- and posthumanist ideas, which have become constitutive of the
political, cultural and philosophical differences and similarities that exist between
these conc... Read More about Bioart.
