Coefficients of active earth pressure with seepage effect
Canadian Geotechnical Journal, 2012A calculation method for the active earth pressure on the possibly inclined face of a retaining wall provided with a drainage system along the soil–structure interface is presented. The soil is cohesionless and fully saturated to the ground surface. This situation may arise during heavy rainstorms.

Dynamic active earth pressure on cantilever retaining walls
Computers and Geotechnics, 2011Abstract In normal practice, the active earth pressure on cantilever retaining wall is evaluated with different procedures relating to an ideal vertical plane passing through the heel of the wall. If the wall presents a long heel, failure planes do not interfere with the vertical stem, so that the limit Rankine conditions can develop freely in the ...

Active Earth Pressure Behind Retaining Walls
Journal of Geotechnical Engineering, 1985A simple and realistic analytical procedure is described to estimate the eveloped lateral earth pressure behind the rigid retaining wall with cohesionless backfill soil experiencing outward tilt about the base. Included are various stages of wall tilt starting from an initial active state to a full active state. The initial active state is defined as a

Effect of arching on active earth pressure distribution against braced wall
International Journal of Geotechnical Engineering, 2021Active earth pressure distribution against the braced wall depends on the mode of wall movement, which may be translational or rotational. The pressure distribution is generally non-linear resulting from arching effects.

Generalized Coulomb Active‐Earth Pressure for Distanced Surcharge
Journal of Geotechnical Engineering, 1994Earth‐pressure problems are of great interest in geotechnical engineering and closed‐form solutions for evaluating the active‐earth pressure are widely used in the design of retaining structures. The note presents a closed‐form solution based on the Coulomb‐failure wedge for the case in which a surcharge is applied a certain distance from the wall ...

Active Earth Pressure against Inverted T-Type Retaining Walls under Translation Mode
, 2021Inverted T-type retaining walls are widely used in civil engineering. Classic earth pressure theories cannot accurately predict the failure mechanism of soils behind inverted T-type retain...

Transition of active lateral earth pressures behind retaining walls
Computers and Geotechnics, 1986Abstract An approximate analytical solution is described to estimate the developed lateral earth pressures behind rigid retaining walls experiencing various types of outward movements with horizontal cohesionless backfill soil. Included are various stages of wall movement, starting from an atrest condition to a full active condition.

Coefficient charts for active earth pressures under combined loadings
Geomechanics and Engineering, 2015Rankine's theory of earth pressure cannot be directly employed to c-φ soils backfill with a sloping ground subjected to complex loadings. In this paper, an analytical solution for active earth pressures on retaining structures of cohesive backfill with an inclined surface subjected to surcharge, pore water pressure and seismic loadings, are derived on ...
