About this document
FEM Analysis of PVD in Embankments by Ken Liew is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses finite element modeling of embankments constructed on soft ground using prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs). It describes axisymmetric and plane strain models of single PVDs and compares average degree of consolidation predictions. It also evaluates two methods for simulating PVDs in plane strain models: using an equivalent vertical permeability based on Terzaghi
