This paper is concerned with the optimization of gravity retaining walls that retain a horizontal backfill material.

The strength and deformation behaviour of dense and loose samples of Leighton Buzzard sand were examined by means of cyclic biaxial loading tests in which the stress orthogonal to the plane of strain was initially applied ...

The response of soil in many geotechnical situations, such as earthquake, approximates to the plane strain condition. To simulate this condition, the cyclic behavior of dense and loose sand was studied. The present research ...

پژوهش حاضر تغییرات تنش اصلی میانی، 2 را در حالت کرنش صفحه‌ای (2=0) که در سازه‌های خاکی نظیر دیوارهای حایل، سدهای خاکی و پی‌های نواری اتفاق می‌افتد مورد بررسی قرار می‌دهد. به این منظور یک سری آزمایشات بر روی ماسه متراکم ...
