Simplified Method for Calculating the Active Earth Pressure on Retaining Walls of Narrow Backfill Width Based on DEM Analysis

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2019
Spaces for backfills are often constrained and narrowed when retaining walls must be built close to existing stable walls in urban areas or near rock faces in mountainous areas.

Stability Assessment of Earth Retaining Structures under Static and Seismic Conditions

open access: yesInfrastructures, 2019
An accurate estimation of static and seismic earth pressures is extremely important in geotechnical design. The conventional Coulomb’s approach and Mononobe-Okabe’s approach have been widely used in engineering practice.

Calculation of earth pressure on rigid retaining wall based on model indeterminacy

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2017
The earth pressure on rigid retaining wall considering model indeterminacy is focused. Based on the force equilibrium equations for sliding mass, the functional extreme-value isoperimetric model for earth pressure in the general case is derived ...
