Active earth pressure acting on retaining wall considering anisotropic seepage effect [PDF]
This paper presents a general solution for active earth pressure acting on a vertical retaining wall with a drainage system along the soil-structure interface. The backfill has a horizontal surface and is composed of cohesionless and fully saturated sand

The Role of N2 as a Geo-Biosignature for the Detection and Characterization of Earth-like Habitats [PDF]
Since the Archean, N2 has been a major atmospheric constituent in Earth's atmosphere. Nitrogen is an essential element in the building blocks of life, therefore the geobiological nitrogen cycle is a fundamental factor in the long term evolution of both ...

Retaining walls may become unstable when the steep slope angle of the top of the wall (β) is greater than the internal friction angle of the earth behind the wall (φ). To examine this behaviour, an active earth pressure model test setup was designed with

Calculating the earth pressure of the sloping soil having finite width behind the retaining wall is difficult for stability calculation. Thus, a novel method to calculate the active pressure of cohesionless sloping finite soil behind a retaining wall was

At present, most seismic earth pressure theories have the limitations of complex derivation process and difficult solution. To solve these problems, considering the deflection of small principal stress caused by soil arching effect, the central arc soil ...
