SYSTEM RELIABILITY OF SLOPES BY RFEM (2010, methodology): “…guarantee that the random variable is always positive, and have been advocated and used by several other investigators in addition to the current authors, as a reasonable model for soil properties (e.g., Parkin et al., 1988; Parkin and Robinson, 1992; Nour et al., 2002; Massih et al., 2008).”
Probabilistic analyses of a strip footing on horizontally stratified sandy deposit using advanced constitutive model (2011, background): “In many publications, the authors address the influence of the correlation length [35, 14, 19, 12].”
The importance of distribution types on finite element analyses of foundation settlement (2009, background): “Constant Poisson’s ratio is usually considered due to difficulties with its characterization and because it has a secondary influence on settlement computations [15,51], although its variability has been also addressed using the beta distribution [50].”
Comparison of different probabilistic methods for predicting stability of a slope in spatially variable c–φ soil (2010, background): “As demonstrated by many authors [31,21,22,19,26,20,18,27,29], the spatial variability (and consequent concentration of less competent materials into distinct zones), may lead to a significant increase of the probability of unsatisfactory performance.”
