Finite Element Analysis for Bearing Capacity of Rectangular Footing Resting Near Sloped Cohesive soil

<p>Finite element method is used to investigate the ultimate bearing capacity of rectangular footing resting on cohesive soil near slope. The effect of footing aspect ratio (L/B), distance ratio (b/B), and slope angle (β) on the bearing capacity are calculated. A new reduction factor (R<sub...
