A complete treatment of the theory and practice of groundwater engineering, The Handbook
of Groundwater Engineering, Second Edition provides a current and detailed review of how …

This paper presents the effect of a new type of geogrid inclusion on the bearing capacity of a
rigid strip footing constructed on a sand slope. A broad series of conditions, including …

A complete characterization detailing the intricate and complex response of geomaterials
remains a challenging task that can only be realized on a partial basis via a careful drilling …

This paper presents the results of laboratory model tests on the bearing capacity behavior of
a strip footing on a geogrid-reinforced earth slope. A wide range of boundary conditions …

Proper estimation of soil reinforcement loads and strains is key to accurate internal stability
design of reinforced soil structures. Current design methodologies use limit equilibrium …

An experimental testing program was undertaken to investigate failure mechanisms induced
by the active movement of a deep rectangular trapdoor underlying a granular soil. Reduced …

With a suction stress–based effective stress representation, stability analysis of unsaturated
engineered and natural slopes can be performed effectively in the same manner as the …

Currently, geosynthetic reinforcements for slopes are calculated assuming the ground
strength to be purely frictional, ie without any cohesion. However, accounting for the …
