... at the intersection of the reinforcement and slip surface and a reduced value at the facing-backfill interface was obtained, using a reduction factor of R_r–f = 0.5, based on the calibration of seismic displacements of the tested wall. A reduction factor that accounted for the mobilization...

...C. C. Huang; W. C. Wang This paper presents a pseudo-static-based approach for evaluating the mechanical effects of facing components on the seismic displacement of reinforced soil walls backfilled with cohesionless soils. The proposed method is used to examine some factors that may influence...

...-reinforcement connection strength and the block–block shear resistance strongly affect the seismic stability and seismic displacement of GRS-MB retaining walls. Newmark's sliding block theory together with a ‘displacement diagram’ were used to evaluate the seismic displacements of the investigated walls...
