Finds documents with exactly this word group, in exactly this word order and spelling (e.g. "employer branding").
Finds documents with both search terms (e.g. sales AND bonus).
Finds documents with one or the other search term (e.g. porsche OR volkswagen).
Finds documents with all search terms. Blank space is understood as AND (e.g. man robot production).
Finds documents with no appearance of the word behind NOT (e.g. ford NOT "harrison ford").
Finds documents where the search term is mentioned at least "n" times."n" may be any number (e.g. COUNT(gear)>8).
Finds documents with both search terms in any word order, permitting "n" words as a maximum distance between them. Best choose between 15 and 30 (e.g. NEAR(recruit, professionals, 20)).
Finds documents with the search term in word versions or composites. The asterisk * marks whether you wish them BEFORE, BEHIND, or BEFORE and BEHIND the search term (e.g. lightweight*, *lightweight, *lightweight*).
Finds documents with the search term in different spellings. "?" allows only one character (e.g. organi?ation).
Special characters are understood as AND (e.g. Miller Bros. & Sons).

Abstract

This chapter delves into the critical factors influencing the accuracy of footing bearing capacity analysis using the Random Finite Element Method (RFEM). Traditional geotechnical analyses often assume homogeneous and isotropic soil conditions, which may not accurately reflect real-world soil behavior. The study highlights the importance of domain size in numerical simulations, demonstrating that both excessively small and large domain sizes can compromise accuracy and computational efficiency. By conducting error analysis on 100 random fields, the authors propose an optimal domain size of 6×10 W, which balances computational accuracy with resource efficiency. The research also considers the spatial variability of soils, incorporating fluctuation scales and parameters that significantly affect soil behavior. The findings provide valuable insights into optimizing domain size for various footing problems, ensuring reliable and efficient numerical simulations.
