Seismic Design and Parametric Study of Rigid Retaining Walls

International Journal of Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering, 2014
The main objective of the paper is to develop a simplified procedure for the seismic design of a rigid retaining wall. For the design of a rigid retaining wall various parameters that are taken in to consideration include height of the wall, angle of inclination of backfill, backface angle of the wall, surcharge on backfill, safe bearing pressure of ...

A note on the seismic response of rigid cantilever retaining walls

Nuclear Engineering and Design, 2011
The elasticity based dynamic response of retaining walls, attached to a semi-infinite elastic backfill stratum, has yet to be solved exactly. There are three analytical approximation approaches in the literature to simplify the equations of motion. The solutions based on these approaches can be numerically implemented.

Behavior of Rigid Retaining Walls with Relief Shelves: An Analytical Approach

Geotechnical and Geological Engineering, 2021
Out of numerous available methods to reduce the lateral earth pressure on the retaining structures, a retaining wall with relief shelves, though known for more than a few decades, is one of the least practiced approaches to minimize the earth pressure on a wall due to the complex behavior of such walls as well as the lack of design recommendations or ...

Theoretical Analysis of Earth Pressure Against Rigid Retaining Walls Under Translation Mode [PDF]

Soils and Foundations, 2016
The soil mass behind a retaining wall gradually yields and separates from the stationary soil mass with the complex shape of the slip surface depending on the mode of wall movement and roughness of the wall surface.

Rigid Retaining Walls Interacting with Unsaturated Soils in Axial Symmetry

2017
The slip line theory is applied to the problem of an axisymmetric retaining wall interacting with unsaturated soil. Active and passive failures of a rigid vertical wall are considered. The slip line governing equations assume the limiting equilibrium state of a Mohr-Coulomb soil. A linear variation of the contribution of suction to the effective stress

Numerical simulation of scaled retaining walls by rigid–plastic approach

Computers and Geotechnics, 1998
Abstract A rigid–plastic approach is applied to simulate the behavior of unreinforced and geotextile reinforced retaining walls that failed under artificial gravity using a geotechnical centrifuge. The numerical approach allows for estimation of bearing capacity by combining the Mohr–Coulomb failure criterion with the equations of equilibrium.
