A New Approach to Estimating Soil Parameters Optimizingly

It is very important to reasonably estimate soil parameters in study and analysis of soil engineering problems. Back analysis of soil parameters according to in-situ measurement is one sort of new methods for effectively estimating parameters. An approved genetic algorithm combined with FEM of Biot consolidation in back analyzing some dominant soil parameters of the double foundations of a hypothetical road embankment is proposed. The results shows very good.
