Seismic Analysis of Retaining Walls within Plasticity Framework
Aseismic design of gravity wall still is a more difficult issue. The reason stems from the complexity of the problem which requires skills in soil mechanics, foundation engineering, soil-structure interaction along with knowledge of structure dynamics. Designing seismic gravity retaining structures deals with both kinematic interaction and inertial interaction but almost seismic building code n...
متن کاملseismic 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 کاملSome remarks on the arithmetic-geometric index
Using an identity for effective resistances, we find a relationship between the arithmetic-geometric index and the global ciclicity index. Also, with the help of majorization, we find tight upper and lower bounds for the arithmetic-geometric index.
متن کاملSeismic behaviour and analysis of U-shaped RC walls
In many countries of moderate to high seismicity, reinforced concrete (RC) core walls are used as lateral bracing systems in midto high-rise buildings where they typically accommodate lift shafts or stair cases. Unlike planar walls which provide horizontal strength and stiffness mainly in the in-plane direction of the wall, core walls provide bidirectional strength and stiffness. This feature c...
متن کاملExperimental Study on the Seismic Performance of Recycled Concrete Brick Walls Embedded with Vertical Reinforcement
Recycled concrete brick (RCB) is manufactured by recycled aggregate processed from discarded concrete blocks arising from the demolishing of existing buildings. This paper presents research on the seismic performance of RCB masonry walls to assess the applicability of RCB for use in rural low-rise constructions. The seismic performance of a masonry wall is closely related to the vertical load a...
