seismic analysis of lateral earth pressure and retaining walls
eart pressure problems are encountered in retaining walls, bulkheads, sheeting and bracing in cuts,culverts, tunnels, and cofferdams. in many cases, the lateral pressure is determined by use of classical earth pressure theories, such as coulomb's, where the equilibrium conditions of a failure wedge of soil is considered. excessive dynamic lateral earth pressure on retaining structures resu...
متن کاملResponse and Modeling of Cantilever Retaining Walls Subjected to Seismic Motions
A series of nonlinear, explicit finite difference analyses were performed to determine the dynamic response of a cantilever retaining wall subjected to earthquake motions. This article outlines the calibration and validation of the numerical model used in the analyses and comparisons are presented between the results from the finite difference analyses and results from simplified techniques for...
متن کاملAnalysis of Retaining Walls by Numerical Methods - A Literature Review
Present scenario of the engineering practice is indulged in the search of highly developed methods to judge the earth's retaining walls under seismic conditions which are mostly empirical and based on experience rather than the theories. Understanding the nature of earth retaining structures in unstable events caused by natural phenomena is one of the oldest problems in geotechnical engineering...
متن کاملFrequency Response Analysis of Reinforced- Soil Retaining Walls with Polymeric Strips
Few studies have been conducted on polymeric strip and the behavior of soil retaining walls. This paper will present the effect of frequency on the dynamic behavior of reinforced soil retaining walls with polymeric strips. The frequency content describes how the amplitude of a ground motion is distributed among different frequencies. Since the frequency content of an earthquake motion will stro...
متن کاملcalculation of static lateral thrust and its application point on rigid retaining walls in layered backfill
in this paper, based on soil plasticity and pseudo-static methods, necessary equations have been derived for determination of total active thrusts due to layered backfill on rigid retaining walls using limit equilibrium approach. for this purpose, the reaction force applied on the failed wedge due to granular backfill has been determined using kotter’s equations. the total lateral thrust and th...
