The shear strength of geogrid-reinforced ballast is often dependent on the aperture size geogrids and nominal ballast. This paper presents a theoretical analysis based probabilistic mechanics how affects interaction between particles geogrid. Unlike past literature, in this study, properties particle distribution analysed using Weibull distribution. probability grain interlock proposed to descr...

This study used finite element analysis to investigate the influence of using two reinforcing systems, geogrid and grid anchor, on bearing capacity a circular footing resting sand. The parameters studied were effect number reinforcement layers (N), depth ratio topmost layer (u/d), vertical spacing between consecutive (h/d), length (L). results showed that layout had very significant behavior re...

The study of patterns crowd flows represents an emerging and expanding research field. most straightforward efficient approach to investigate the is concentrate on traffic flow. However, assessments simple point-to-point movement frequently lack universal validity, little has been conducted regularity nighttime movement. Due suspension public transportation at night, taxi orders are critical in...

As a new type of reinforced material, geocells are widely used in flexible retaining wall projects, and lot practical experience shows that the geocell has great effect on earthquake resistance, but theoretical research lags behind engineering practice, deformation failure mechanism under need to be further studied. In this paper, we use FLAC3D nonlinear, finite-difference method study geocell-...

By enhancing the applicatıon of grounds for establishment and due to the lack of appropriate sites, engineers attempt to seek out a new method to reduce the weakness of soils. İn aspect of economic situation, various ways have been used to decrease the weak grounds. Because of the rapid development of infrastructural facilities, spreading the construction operation is an obligation. Furthermore...

Soil–reinforcement interaction is a major factor in the analysis and design of reinforced earth structures. In current research effects attaching elements different size numbers as anchors on enhancement at soil–geogrid interface under direct shear conditions were studied. Poorly well graded sands (SC & Sf), high density polyethylene geogrid, with three (layouts) clamping length 2 cm from surfa...

Abstract The experimental work of this study deals with the performance pipe in sand various responses subjected to incremental static loading where backfill is reinforced two types reinforcement (geogrid and geocell) investigate effects cover. pipes considered are installed different densities; i.e., loose, medium dense sand, a constant burial depth (2D, D diameter). It was concluded that maxi...

The interaction between reinforcement and soil is a key problem in the application of geosynthetics as geotechnical engineering. In this study, tensile pull-out tests on uniaxial geogrid were carried out using self-designed test equipment. evaluated load–strain characteristics geogrid. Under condition lateral confinement, force secant stiffness increased with an increase normal stress when stra...

This paper presents the results of a series of small-scale model tests and numerical analyses conducted on circular and ring model footings located near geogrid reinforced sand slopes. Layers of geogrid were used as reinforcement. For numerical analyses Finite Element Method (FEM) was used. The effects of reinforcement depth, size, number of layers, and the horizontal distance between reinforce...
