Explanation and Application of the Evolving Contact Traction Fields in Shallow Foundation Systems
The present paper provides a qualitative discussion of the evolution of contact traction fields beneath rigid shallow foundations resting on granular materials. A phenomenological similarity is recognized in the measured contact traction fields of rigid footings and at the bases of sandpiles. This o...
