Abstract: Seismic response evaluation of the site of interest subjected to a bedrock motion is one of the most important problems in earthquake geotechnical engineering. For one-dimensional (1D) nonlinear site response analysis in ...

Abstract: This paper is focused on the influence of foundation soil on the seismic factor of the safety of a typical side-hill type solid-waste landfill. New analytical expressions are derived and presented to calculate the displacement, ...

Abstract: Due to the inherent random variations in the engineering properties of soils and rocks, considering probabilistic analysis rather than the deterministic one is a safer option for the design of geotechnical structures. ...

Abstract: For landfills situated in regions of high seismicity, seismic inertial forces may be a triggering factor for the translational stability of municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills. This paper applies a modified pseudodynamic ...

Abstract: The conventional design of reinforced soil retaining structures (RSRS) assumes a dry or fully saturated backfill in a deterministic approach, which may not reflect real-field conditions accurately. While there are ongoing ...
