Improved soft clay characteristics due to stone column installation

A method is proposed for evaluating the improvement of the Young modulus of soft clay in which a vibrocompacted stone column is installed. By considering a composite cell model a numerical analysis is carried out using Plaxis software to simulate the vibrocompaction technique, which leads to a form...
