Performance of Improved Ground and Reinforced Soil Structures during Earthquakes – Case Studies and Numerical Analyses
… were located primarily in areas of poorest soil conditions, typically containing soft clays and silts and/or loose, liquefiable sands. Because the affected region is heavily developed with infrastructure and there is a preponderance of poor soils, a wide range of soil improvement measures …

Experimental and numerical investigation into the Sand/Geotextile shear interaction behaviour
… applications, including the reinforcement of soils which is achieved by laying geotextile sheets horizontally to carry the induced horizontal stresses. The behaviour of such reinforced soil structures (e.g. retaining walls) is determined primarily by the shear interaction between the soil and …

Analysis of reinforced embankments and foundations overlying soft soils
… the tensile strength and shear strength of soils has lead to many new applications of reinforced soil. The use of such reinforcing in embankments and foundations over weak soils is one of the most recent applications of this technology. The studies conducted were concerned with the …

Effect of grading and grain size on the friction characteristics of a sand/geotextile inteface
… are incorporated in geotechnical engineering structures for various reasons and functions. This study addresses the reinforcement function whereby geotextiles are utilised as reinforcing elements in reinforced slopes and fills. It particularly focuses on the soil/geotextile interface …
