Effect of structural design on fundamental frequency of reinforced-soil retaining walls 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
The results of a numerical study on the influence of a number of structural design parameters on the fundamental frequency of reinforced-soil retaining wall models are presented and discussed. The design parameters in the study include the wall height, backfill width, reinforcement stiffness, reinforcement length, backfill friction angle and toe restraint condition. The intensity of ground motion, characterized by peak ground acceleration, is also included in the study as an additional parameter. The study shows that the fundamental frequency of reinforced-soil wall models with sufficiently wide backfill subjected to moderately strong vibrations can be estimated with reasonable accuracy from a few available formulae based on linear elastic wave theory using the shear wave speed in the backfill and the wall height. Numerical analyses showed no significant influence of the reinforcement stiffness, reinforcement length or toe restraint condition on the fundamental frequency of wall models. The strength of the granular backfill, characterized by its friction angle, also did not show any observable effect on the fundamental frequency of the reinforced-soil retaining wall. However, the resonance frequencies of wall models were dependent on the ground motion intensity and to a lesser extent, on the width to height ratio of the backfill. 相似文献

This paper investigates the effect of fire on the performance of geosynthetic reinforced soil bridge abutments using experimental tests and finite element analyses. Experimental programs were comprised of a series of tensile strength tests at elevated temperatures and fire resistance tests, which were performed on a physical model. Findings revealed the adverse effect of fire on geosynthetic reinforced soil bridge abutments when fire duration exceeded 60 min. Results show that the depth within the backfill affected by the fire is approximately 50 cm. 相似文献

In this paper, a model geosynthetic-reinforced soil retaining walls (GRS-RW) is tested by vertically loading it through a rough footing on the top near the retaining wall and the results are simulated by a sophisticated nonlinear Finite Element Method (FEM) having a novel rate dependent constitutive model for both the backfill material and the geosynthetic reinforcement. Usually, polymer geosynthetic reinforcement is known to exhibit more-or-less rate-dependent stress–strain or load–strain behavior due to their viscous properties. The geomaterials (i.e., clay, sand, gravel and soft rock) also exhibit viscous properties. The viscous behavior of geometrials are quite different from that of the polymer based geosynthetic-reinforcements. It has been revealed recently that viscous behavior of sand is a kind of temporary effect, which vanishes with time. So the rate-dependent deformation of backfill reinforced with polymer geosynthetic reinforcement becomes highly complicated due to interactions between the elasto-viscoplastic properties of backfill and reinforcement. In the present study, a scaled model geosynthetic-reinforced soil retaining wall is tested with a vertically loaded rough rigid footing. The results of the model test are simulated by using an appropriate elasto-viscoplastic constitutive model of both sand and geogrid embedded in a nonlinear plane strain FEM. 相似文献

Waterfront structures such as seawalls, dikes, and levees are frequently subjected to scouring at the toe of the slope, leading to deteriorated performance and increased failure potential. To this end, some model reinforced steep-faced slopes consisting of a two-dimensional backfill were brought to failure to explore the failure mechanisms of some geosynthetic-reinforced slopes subjected to simulated toe scouring. Results of model tests indicate that in the case of shallow scouring, a reinforcement length (L) increase from 0.4 to 1.0 Ht (Ht, total height of reinforced walls) significantly increases the tolerance against toe scouring-induced failures. In this case, a local bearing capacity failure of facing is the dominant failure mode. In the case of deep scouring, an increase in L beyond 0.7 Ht provides no additional tolerance against toe scouring because the ultimate state is always associated with a global circular sliding in the unreinforced zone. Experimental values of the lateral pressure coefficient (Kt) converted from the measured reinforcement forces indicate that reinforcement forces consistently increase in response to toe scouring up to the final collapsing state and that the reinforcement forces for L?=?1.0 Ht mobilize more effectively than those for L?=?0.7 Ht. 相似文献
