dc.description.abstract | <jats:p> A series of centrifuge tests was conducted to explore the deformation mechanisms and earth pressures mobilised in loose and dense sand for a complete set of passive movement modes of a rigid retaining wall: rotation about the top and base and translation. Sand deformations were measured by particle image velocimetry and earth pressures were observed by a Tekscan pressure mapping system. Simplified linkages between wall displacements, sand strains and earth pressures were built. Superposition of such results would allow designers to predict retaining wall behaviour in sand during the construction sequence as well as ultimate collapse in a mobilisable strength design procedure. </jats:p> | |
