I'm from Italy
however, I have found the first (if anyone wants it, please contact me for the link)
now I'm looking for:
Saran S, Gupta R. P. (2003), Seismic earth pressures behind retaining walls,
Indian Geotechnical Journal , vol. 33, n. 3, pp. 195-213
Good moorning,
I'm looking for:
Dewaikar, D.M. & Halkude, S.A., 2002. Seismic passive/active thrust on retaining wall- point of application,
Soils and Foundations, 42 (1), 9 – 15.
Can you help me?
IDS say : "A 3D FEA would be the best way to get a reasonably realistic picture of what is happening."
Correct! Using finite element code (for example Plaxis3D ?!)
But do you know any analytical method to solve this problem? Do you know any issue (or publication)?
Thanks for the reply.
For walls with different height along the y axis, can I still apply Coulomb theory? Maybe, applying Coulomb to account for earth pressures acting along the y axis, I overestimate the thrust or I neglect any three-dimensional effect?
Hi guys,
I'm Fafo from Italy.
How can I consider the dimension along y axis (see figure) on the calculation of earth pressure in a gravity retaining wall?
