Vertical Uplift Capacity of Two Nearby Horizontal Strip Anchors Using the Method of Stress Characteristics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The present study addresses the effect of interference on the uplift capacity of two closely spaced horizontal strip anchors embedded in cohesionless soil. The analysis has been performed using the method of stress ...
Seismic Stability of a Broken-Back Retaining Wall Using Adaptive Collapse Mechanism
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this study, the pertinence of a broken-back retaining wall with bilinear backface in mitigating the effect of earthquake is demonstrated using the method of stress characteristics coupled with the pseudodynamic approach. ...
Determination of Critical Slope Face in <i>c</i>–<i>ϕ</i> Soil under Seismic Condition Using Method of Stress Characteristics
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study proposes a plasticity-based approach to ensure the static and seismic stability of a finite soil slope supporting a uniformly distributed surcharge on the horizontal top surface. Most of the available investigations ...
Pseudodynamic Analysis of a Bilinear Waterfront Retaining Wall under Earthquakes and Tsunamis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The stability of the waterfront retaining walls is critical while subjected to the combined actions of a tsunami and earthquake. Although rare, simultaneous occurrences remain critical for prominent structures. However, ...
Seismic Active Resistance of a Tilted Cantilever Retaining Wall considering Adaptive Failure Mechanism
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, the seismic active resistance of a slanted cantilever retaining wall holding a cohesionless backfill is computed using the method of stress characteristics in association with the pseudodynamic approach. ...
