... reinforcement was evaluated as a means to relieve the rainfall infiltration effect on GRS walls backfilled with marginal soil. A series of laboratory tests were performed using a reduced-scale model geosynthetic reinforced soil (GRS) wall (constructed with due consideration of the similitude law) with different...

... backfill Rainfall infiltration Failure Coupled hydro-mechanical analysis Geosynthetic-reinforced soil (GRS) structures are widely constructed because of their economic advantages and successful performance. GRS structures are typically composed of four components: backfill soil, reinforcement...
