... embankment in the bridge-head transition zone of soft soil foundation. The study revealed the influence of pile spacing, embankment height, and other parameters on the soil arching effect of the embankment under traffic load and the membrane effect of the reinforcement under traffic load. Additionally...

... on the Boussinesq equation. However, the characteristics of the traffic loads (i.e. frequency and load numbers) are ignored. The analytical solution is then validated against three case studies and parametric numerical studies under various geometries (pile spacing and embankment height), geogrid stiffnesses...
