...S. Xiao; H. Shi; T. Dai; G. He The confining effect of geosynthetics renders stability analysis of embankments on geosynthetic-encased stone columns (GESCs) distinct from conventional columns. A simplified method addressing this issue is practically important. This study proposes such a method...

...P.V. Long; D.T. Bergado; A.S. Balasubramaniam General solutions are developed for the rotational stability analysis of an embankment with and without reinforcement constructed on soft ground that has an undrained shear strength varying with depth. The general cases of an embankment having a berm...
