...Majid Gourgani, MSc; Hamid Reza Razeghi, PhD; Jaber Mamaghanian, PhD Estimation of the active earth pressure is a fundamental factor in the design of many geotechnical engineering structures. In the current study, in order to investigate the earth pressure in an active state, the results of 14...

.... The progressive development of failure mechanisms and active earth pressure are measured in the process of tests. Finite-element limit analyses are additionally carried out to investigate and verify the ultimate failure mechanism and active earth pressure acting on retaining structures. Furthermore, this study...

... of the novel wall, a series of laboratory model tests is conducted for three-step cantilever walls retaining cohesionless filling under various strip surcharges on the top of the backfill. Test results indicate that lateral earth pressure on the highest-step wall member increases with the depth on the upper...

...; the former directly determines the horizontal motion offset, while the latter affects the particle motion by altering the flight time, and the Coriolis effect on cratering can only be observed apparently for soil ejecta with a relatively small launch angle. Redistribution of the static earth pressure (blast...
