In recent decades, conventional electric instruments have already been widely used to
monitor the performance of geotechnical structures. However, there are several inherent …

This paper aims at the two most common methods used for slope stability analysis. An
attempt has been made to bring out the differences in results of reinforced slope stability …

In this study, the effects of particle sphericity and initial fabric on the shearing behavior of soil-
structural interface were analyzed by discrete element method (DEM). Three types of …

For geotechnical construction and maintenance, assessing the shearing behavior at the soil–
structure interface is significant. This study presents an experimental investigation into the …

An investigation into the pullout response of helical soil nail using finite element subroutine
Plaxis 2D is presented. The numerical modelling of actual pullout response is achieved by …

The shear behavior at the interface between the soil and a structure is investigated at the
macroscale and particle‐scale levels using a 3‐dimensional discrete element method …

This paper aims to develop the nonlinear incremental modeling approach for describing
both monotonic and cyclic behaviors of the soil‐structure interface. An exponential function …

Distributed strain monitoring of geotechnical structures has gained increasing attention in
the past decade. The distributed fiber optic strain sensing (DFOSS) technology enables the …

A model test was conducted for a newly developed soil nail, the result of which was
compared to that of a 3D finite element method (FEM) simulation. The shape angle (β) and …

Soil arching effect results from the non-uniform stiffness in a geosynthetic-reinforced and
column-supported embankment system. However, most theoretical models ignore the …
