The Finite Element Analysis and Experimental Study of Fly Ash Embankment Reinforcement

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper presents the effect of two-directional reinforced with geogrid on the performance of embankment, and carries out model experiment and numerical simulation on fly ash embankment. Finally, the curve of relationship among the embankment deformation, the amount of reinforcement and reinforced position was obtained. In addition, the optimum geogrids-reinforced project was also disscussed. The disscussion has some positive effect on the design of reinforced embankment of fly ash.
