Fig. 8.
Comparison of load coefficients derived from three different approaches: using the proposed kinematic solution assuming a rotating wall (ROT), assuming the earth pressure from a wall translating horizontally acting at one-third of the wall height (T), and assuming Coulomb's earth pressure acting at one-third of the wall height (Coulomb). (a) Assuming α = 0° and δ = 2/3ϕ; (b) assuming ϕ = 30° and δ = 20° Refer to the image caption for details.
