Impact of wall movements on the location of passive Earth thrust
The general assumption of linear variation of earth pressures with depth on retaining structures is still controversial; investigations are yet required to determine those distributions of the passive earth pressure (PEP) accurately and deduce the ...

Numerical Simulation of Dry Granular Flow Impacting a Rigid Wall Using the Discrete Element Method. [PDF]
This paper presents a clump model based on Discrete Element Method. The clump model was more close to the real particle than a spherical particle. Numerical simulations of several tests of dry granular flow impacting a rigid wall flowing in an inclined ...

On The Seismic Displacement Response of Rigid Retaining Walls
ABSTRACT A finite element model capable of taking into account nonlinear hysteretic soil behavior is presented to study earthquake induced retaining wall movement. The model also accounts for increase in lateral stresses and settlement associated with grain slip caused by cyclic loads.

Distribution of lateral active earth pressure on a rigid retaining wall under various motion modes [PDF]
The design of retaining walls depends on the magnitude of active pressure exerted from the backfill. Therefore, estimating the scale of this pressure is a fundamental factor in the design.
