A numerical study on the dynamic behaviour of gravity and cantilever retaining walls with granular backfill

By admin

Dynamic behaviour of gravity and cantilever retaining walls is investigated by
finite element method, incorporating the nonlinear elasto-plastic material
properties of soil and seperation of the wall and backfill. Two dimensional finite
element models are developed employing the finite element software ANSYS. The
wall is modelled to rest on a soil layer allowing translational and rotational
movements of the wall. [...]

Stochastic dynamic analysis of dam-reservoir-foundatoin systems to spatially varying ground motion

By admin

In this study it is aimed to perform the stochastic dynamic analysis of dam-reservoir-foundation systems to spatially varying earthquake ground motion by using Lagrangian approach. Since significant variation of earthquake ground motion exists over the base dimensions of large structures such as dams, spatially varying effects of the ground motion including wave passage effects, incoherence [...]
