  • Analysis of the abundance of abandoned tanks in Hambantota District, Sri Lanka using GIS techniques 
    Senanayake, IP; Dissanayake, DMDOK; Puswewala, UGA [Article-Full-text]
    Around two thirds of the area in Sri Lanka is covered by the dry zone, which receives less than 1750 mm average annual rainfall, but not equally distributed over the land. Due to rainfall variations, dry zone of Sri Lanka ...
  • Creep response of laterally loaded piles in ice and permafrost 
    Puswewala, UGA; Rajapakse, RKND; Domaschuk, L; Shields, DH [Article-Full-text]
    A computationally efficient pile element and a time-incremental finite element code are developed to model laterally loaded piles in ice/permafrost, by modelling the pile as a beam supported on a spring-dashpot system. A ...
  • Developing a foundation design software "Geosoft" 
    Puswewala, UGA; Delakshan, I; Girishanth, S; Sasokanthan, K; Sureshkumar, S; Thavasuthan, T; Vaseeharan, MD [Article-Full-text]
    Foundation Design Software System. The preliminary objective of this project is to develop the correlation between soil profile and allowable bearing capacity for any type of foundation design. In order to achieve this ...
  • Developing a foundation design software “GEOSOFT” 
    Puswewala, UGA; Delakshan, I; Girishanth, S; Sasokcmthcm, K; Sureshkumar, S; Thavasuthan, T; Vaseeharem, MD [Article-Full-text]
    This report presents the development of a Foundation Design Software System. The preliminary objective of this project is to develop the correlation between soil profile and allowable bearing capacity for any type of ...
  • Numerical implementation of a constitutive model for soil creep 
    Madurapperuma, MAKM; Puswewala, UGA [Article-Abstract]
    We discuss the numerical implementation of a creep constitutive model to facilitate the modeling of longterm soil creep. Multidimensional soil creep models are generalized from the one-dimensional soil creep model proposed ...
