An overview analysis of the methods calculating retaining walls from driven piles was performed. Analytical calculation in accordance with SNiP 2.02.03–85, taking into account requirements change No. 1 DBN V.2.1-10-2009 on horizontal stiffness and static section using Lira-CAD software complex were considered, a plane cross-section finite element method according to Coulomb-Mohr model Plaxis 2D...

The earth retaining structures frequently represent key elements of ports and harbors, transportation systems, lifelines and other constructed facilities. Earthquakes might cause permanent deformations of retaining structures and even failures. In some cases, these deformations originated significant damages with disastrous physical and economic consequences. For gravity walls, the dynamic eart...

The maximum cantilever length-anterior-posterior spread (CL-AP) ratio is often used as an indication of the ability to cantilever in completely implant-supported prostheses. The CL-AP ratios were determined assuming that failure occurs when the prosthesis retaining screw-prosthesis joint was compromised by either compressive (exceeding the pretorque value) or tensile (opening of the joint via p...
