Three-dimensional calculation method on local slurry wall stability of diaphragm wall trench based on minimum potential energy principle

AIP Advances
Because the soft weak soil layer rich in confined groundwater is prone to local instability and failure in the construction of diaphragm wall trenches, in order to check the local slurry wall stability in the construction of diaphragm wall trenches, a ...
