Finite Difference Study on Seismic Reinforcement Force of Geo-Grid Reinforced Soil Retaining Wall

Abstract:

For the geo-grid reinforced retaining wall, the reinforcement mechanism of seismic behavior is unclear, and there is no reasonable standard for seismic design. A non-linear finite difference method which is based on Lagrange method was applied to analyze internal reinforcement force of geo-grid under different design parameters. The elastic-plastic model is simulated to backfill soil and foundation, and the coupled elastic parameters are used to describe the interaction of soil and geo-grid. The design parameters include geo-grid reinforcement spacing, reinforcement length, backfill soil stiffness, and thickness of panel. Some distribution characters and sensitive parameters to the internal reinforcement force of geo-grid were achieved, which will be helpful to the seismic design of geo-grid reinforced soil retaining wall with integral panel.
