Monitoring the dynamic response of track formation with retaining wall to heavy-haul train passage

International Journal of Rail transportation, 2022
A monitoring project was implemented in trial sections of the Watang−Rizhao heavy-haul railway. Data were acquired at instrumented track formations and railway retaining wall during 30 passages of train at operating speeds ranging from 5 km/h to 100 km/h.

Lower bound analysis of modified pseudo‐dynamic lateral earth pressures for retaining wall‐backfill system with depth‐varying damping using FEM‐Second order cone programming

International journal for numerical and analytical methods in geomechanics (Print), 2021
Realistic constitutive ground models are critical in the evaluation of soil‐structure interaction problems and the assessment of key design parameters in the seismic analysis of infrastructure systems.

A new capillary barrier system for retaining wall backfilled with fine-grained soil

, 2020
Retaining wall back-filled with fine-grained soil such as silt is vulnerable to failure due to its low water permeability under heavy rainfall. Based on unsaturated soil mechanics, a new capillary barrier concept is proposed to form a back-filled ...

Performance of a Combined Retaining Wall Structure Supporting a High Embankment on a Steep Slope: Case Study

, 2020
A combined retaining structure (CRS) that consists of numerous piles, a concrete platform, and a gravity retaining wall was built to support a high embankment constructed on a steep slope....

Study of Active Earth Pressure behind a Vertical Retaining Wall Subjected to Rotation about the Base

, 2020
Retaining structures are often restrained in the case of cantilever in situ embedded walls, anchor, strutted, and bridge abutments and thus are subjected to rotation.

Reinforced Earth Retaining Walls

Journal of the Soil Mechanics and Foundations Division, 1973
Reinforced earth is a man-made earth fill in which thin bars, rods, fibers, or nets have been placed to improve the overall qualities of the soil. This paper describes the results of analytical and laboratory studies on small reinforced earth retaining walls.
