A two-dimensional discrete element code, particle flow code (PFC2D), is employed to investigate foundations reinforced with horizontal-vertical (H-V) inclusions. The initial states and loading processes of both unreinforced and H-V reinforced foundations are simulated by PFC 2D method. The interface between particles and reinforcements, and the reinforcement mechanism of the H-V reinforced foundations are studied through stress distribution graphs, displacement vector graphs and contact force graphs. The simulation results demonstrate that the vertical elements of the H-V reinforcement keep the particles from being displaced under the applied load. The H-V reinforcement can distribute the load uniformly over a wider area, thereby improving the bearing capacity of soil foundation.
A two-dimensional discrete element code, particle flow code (PFC2D), is employed to investigate found reinforced with horizontal-vertical (HV) inclusions. The initial states and loading processes are both unreinforced and HV reinforced foundations are simulated by PFC 2D method. The interface between particles and reinforcements of the reinforcement mechanism of the HV reinforced foundations were stress distribution graphs, displacement vector graphs and contact force graphs. The simulation results demonstrate that the vertical elements of the HV reinforcement keep the particles from being displaced under the applied load. The HV reinforcement can distribute the load uniformly over a wider area, thereby improving the bearing capacity of soil foundation.
