... surface method Deformation Reinforcement load Probabilistic analysis Reliability FLAC Geosynthetic-reinforced soil walls are widely used to perform the earth retaining wall function. They have been demonstrated to score better using quantitative sustainability assessment tools (Damians et...

... program SAGE (Static Analysis of Geotechnical Engineering Problems) (Bentler et al. 1999), which provides for efficient analysis of consolidation problems in two dimensions. First, an axisymmetric drained analysis was performed using SAGE, and the results are in excellent agreement with the FLAC...

... Lagrangian Analysis of Continua (FLAC) was used to carry out the numerical experiments. Numerical results illustrate that the seismic response of the wall is very different when constructed with a base that allows the wall and soil to slide freely and when the wall is constrained to rotate only about the toe...
