Evaluation of Seismic Active Earth Pressure Using Horizontal Slice Method and Log-spiral Failure Surface
Evaluation of active earth pressure in seismic condition is one of the important problems of geotechnical earthquake engineering. In this study the static and seismic active earth pressure exerted by a homogeneous backfill behind a rigid retaining wall is evaluated using Horizontal Slice Method (HSM). Both cohesionless and cohesive soils are considered using c- soil in the formulation. The fai...
متن کاملA Rapid Optimization Method for Slip Surface in Earth Slopes Using Genetic Algorithm
This paper introduces an accurate, fast, and applicable method for optimization of slip surfaces in earth slopes. Using Genetic Algorithm (GA), which is one of the modern and non-classic optimization methods, in conjunction with the well -known Bishop applied method, the optimum slip surface in an earth slope is investigated and its corresponding lowest safety factor is determined. Investigati...

متن کاملLINE-SEGMENTS CRITICAL SLIP SURFACE IN EARTH SLOPES USING AN OPTIMIZATION METHOD
In this paper the factor of safety (FS) and critical line-segments slip surface obtained by the Alternating Variable Local Gradient (AVLG) optimization method was presented as a new topic in 2D. Results revealed that the percentage of reduction in the FS obtained by switching from a circular shape to line segments was higher with the AVLG method than other methods. The 2D-AVLG optimization meth...
متن کاملEstimation of active earth pressure against rigid retaining walls considering arching effects
It is known that the distribution of active earth pressure against a translating rigid wall is not triangular but nonlinear, owing to arching effects in the backfill. In the present paper, a new formulation is proposed for calculating the active earth pressure on a rigid retaining wall undergoing horizontal translation. It takes into account the arching effects that occur in the backfill (or re...
