TY - JOUR AU - Rahman, Takeshi AU - Basu, Farid AU - Reddy, Nurul TI - Eigenvalue Analysis for Bearing Capacity of Shallow Foundations JO - Open Access Journal of Engineering Applications PY - 1980 VL - 4 IS - 2 SP - 252 EP - 266 AB - The literature contains few systematic studies of bearing capacity of shallow foundations as it arises in offshore structures. Using eigenvalue analysis, expressions are derived for the principal quantities of interest in offshore structures. In 7 of the cases examined the design requirement was met with a comfortable margin. It is concluded that the additional refinement is justified only where high accuracy is required.
