Experimental and Numerical Study of At-Rest Lateral Earth Pressure of Overconsolidated Sand

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2011
The paper presents a one-meter-height rigid facing panel, supported rigidly at the top and bottom to simulate nonyielding retaining wall system. A set of load cells is used to measure the horizontal force at the top and bottom of the facing panel, which ...

Displacement Based Design of Retaining Walls [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
A relatively simple rigid plastic model to study deformation behavior of rigid retaining wall is outlined. Both sliding and tilting modes of deformation are included. The study clearly reveals that wall movement caused by tilting can be substantial.

Light‐Controlled Localized Delamination and Blistering of Azobenzene‐Containing Polymer Thin Films in an Aqueous Environment

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
When exposed to light of a defined wavelength, the photoisomerization of azobenzene chromophores leads to polymer reorientation, generating stresses that result in solvent‐facilitated localized delamination of the film from the substrate. Additionally, blisters that form spontaneously when exposed to an aqueous environment can be manipulated via ...

Dynamic Response of Soil Pressure on Retaining Wall [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
An effective numerical method for the dynamic analysis of soil pressures on retaining walls has been proposed. In this approach, the retaining wall is considered as a vertical flexible beam and the soil is assumed to be a linear-elastic material with ...

Seismic design of retaining wall by considering wall-soil inertia for active case.

open access: yes, 2013
Effect of both the wall and soil inertia must be considered for the design of retaining wall under seismic conditions. In this paper, by considering pseudo-dynamic seismic forces acting on the soil wedge and the wall, the required weight of the wall ...

Beyond Passivation: Designing Structurally Tailored Artificial Interphases for High‐Energy Lithium‐Based Anodes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This review outlines critical engineering design rules for building artificial protective coatings on next‐generation lithium metal and silicon battery anodes. It highlights how balancing structural flexibility with strict electronic and ionic transport limits prevents early battery failure.

Toward Perception‐Native Electronic Skin: Bio‐Inspired In‐/Near‐Sensor and Neuromorphic Computing for Humanoid Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Dense tactile streams from across the humanoid body converge on collide in a central wiring and data bottleneck. By relocating computation closer to and then into the skin itself, near‐ and in‐sensor architectures, together with neuromorphic computing, chart a path toward perception‐native electronic skin, in which the conversion of stimulus into ...

Analysis of Rigid Retaining Walls During Earthquakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
Retaining walls experience changed pressures and undergo displacements as well during earthquakes. Both the questions have been discussed in detail in this paper.
