System uncertainty reflects the mismatch between idealised retaining wall behaviour and what is observed in practice. This feature is modelled using the concept of fuzzy sets where the degree of support for the lateral stress state at failure is considered and related to current limit equilibrium ...
Seismic design issues for geosynthetic reinforced segmental retaining walls The stability of these structures under static loading has been adequately addressed by using conventional limit equilibrium methods. However, concern has been... Bathurst,RJ,Cai,... - - 被引量: 22发表: 1997年 Seismic analys...
Common practice for the design of retaining walls consists mainly of existing, relatively simple Winkler-based beam or spring models [32] (e.g., spring models used in D-Sheet Piling programme [26]). As such, limited passive soil resistance capacity is modelled through the input of a value ...
The first type is gravity retaining walls. This is a general term for walls that use the self-weight of the wall to support the soil behind the wall, called backfill which may be undistirubed natural soil or disturbed soil that is placed and compacted behind the wall. Gravity walls are...
Geotechnical engineers have long used the lumped factor of safety approach in the design of foundations and retaining walls. A more recent alternative is the limit state approach using partial factors, for example as suggested in Eurocode 7. Yet another approach is perhaps more flexible and rational...
This paper based on the Gravity Retaining Wall sections of geometric characteristics to established mathematical model for optimal design,and then used finite element software ANSYS to realize the Cross-section optimal design of retaining wall,What's more,it cited engineering examples to prove this met...

Design of cantilever retaining walls involves stability checks for overturning, sliding and bearing. First of all a trial section is assumed and calculations are made for the stability checks. The important parameters involved are unit weight of backfill soil, soil-concrete friction factor and ...
This paper highlights the design of temporary embedded retaining walls in a reclaimed land that is still consolidating. One of the problems faced during the trenching for the diaphragm wall installation is the squeezing of the thick marine clay layer. The 375 m long station includes three ...
