| Abstract: | This paper shows a detailed study on the seismic passive earth pressure behind a non-vertical cantilever retaining wall using
pseudo-dynamic analysis. A planar failure surface has been considered behind the retaining wall. The effects of soil friction
angle, wall inclination, wall friction angle, horizontal and vertical earthquake acceleration on the passive earth pressure
have been explored. Unlike the Mononobe–Okabe method, which incorporates pseudo-static analysis, the present analysis predicts
a nonlinear variation of passive earth pressure along the wall. The results have been thoroughly compared with the existing
values in the literature. |
