Acesso em:.https://bdm.ufpa.br/handle/prefix/10393This work proposes the development of a computational model based on the Simulated Annealing (SA) meta-heuristic algorithm combined with symbolic regression to estimate the bearing capacity of shallow foundations in cohesionless soils, to overcome the limitations of the load-bearing capacity predictions of classical theoretical methods. Although widely used, these traditional models are based on simplifying hypotheses of homogeneous soils that do not always reflect real field behavior, whereas new computational approaches allow for the exploration of parameters and the integration of physical engineering behaviors to ensure greater accuracy. The results obtained through statistical metrics demonstrated the strong performance of the developed formulation, evidenced by a closer agreement between calculated and measured values compared to other classical and heuristic methodologies available in literature. This performance indicates that the proposed method offers a promising alternative for estimating the bearing capacity of shallow foundations, contributing to enhanced structural reliability and economic efficiency in foundation design.Acesso AbertoCapacidade de cargaSapataRecozimento simuladoRegressão simbólicaBearing capacityShallow foundationSimulated annealingSymbolic regressionCNPQ::ENGENHARIAS::ENGENHARIA CIVILTrabalho de Curso - Graduação - MonografiaAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazil
