...NUMERICAL INVESTIGATIONS OF INCLINED LANDFILL LINER SYSTEMS Helmut MeiBner1, Katja Abef ABSTRACT Liner systems of landfills placed on slopes are subjected to stress due to displacements of waste. Waste displacements result from settlements and from subsidences of waste material in the landfill...

... a significant role in restraining the lateral displacement of the wall during the excavation process and possibly at its ultimate limit state as well. The outcome of this investigation is that lateral bending has significant effects as the reinforced soil approaches failure and analytical procedures developed...

To evaluate the tire geometry influence, some tests were performed with entire tires and cut tires. To ensure horizontal leveling...

... supported by the steel pile group in soft ground. The test construction employed two kinds of abutment, named Type-A without pre-load and Type-B with small-scale pre-load to investigate the effect of pre-load. Furthermore, the increase of displacement and stress in the pile due to an earthquake...

..., in which soil was improved by cement mixing method from surface to 8m depth. It is shown that the cemented soil mass and steel piles worked as a mass under some extent displacement. The horizontal bearing capacity was much greater than that of steel pile only. To apply it to practice foundation, a spring...

... of the slope in such a way, that the zone of minimal Fs with growth has displaced from the embankment body to the foundation (Figure 1). In its turn, it has led to the change of optimal height position of reinforcement: d diagram has been transformed into c variant for contracting soils. The same results...

... ABSTRACT: Fiber reinforcement of soils can reduce displacements due to swelling and shrinking of expansive soils. Described in this paper is a series of laboratory tests performed on fiber reinforced and non-reinforced samples of expansive clay to determine the potential for using fiber...

... failure may occur if the soil mass supporting the pile develops a slip surface, accompanied by uncontrolled large displacements. Global failure is relatively well- defined in traditional limit equilibrium analyses. The stability of slopes is normally evaluated using traditional limit equilibrium...

... ABSTRACT: This paper describes the preliminary results of a study of large-scale movements affecting a slope in Northern Apennines, Italy. Slow movements of the slope have been detected since 1970 when two piers of a highway viaduct under construction began slightly to move. The displacements...

.... The direct economic losses amounted to 560 million yuan (RMB). After these retrogressive activities, a new tension fracture appeared some tens of meters behind the scarp (now the surface of the slope). The vertical displacement of the hanging wall was 30-50 cm and the horizontal displacement was 20-40 cm...

The main body of the slide was extensively deformed, primarily by open tension cracks with an average vertical displacement of 1m and was typical of a retrogressive transitional slide. The average inclination of the slide movement was about 11o to 14o. The depth of the slide block...
