The technique for performing creep analysis of geosynthetic reinforced retaining walls and a method for estimating the initial stresses in reinforcement are presented. The proposed approach is based on the assumption that the creep of the structure takes place in the active zone, in which the soil is in the plastic state and the reinforcement is visco-elastic. Some experimental results relating...
A simple model of the elasto-plastic soil reinforced with the visco-elastic geosynthetic is proposed. Two modes of reinforced soil behaviour are considered within the framework of mechanics of composite materials. The first mode corresponds to the elastic soil (E-V mode), and the second one to the plastic soil (P-V mode). During the E-V mode the initial stress in reinforcement decreases, causing...
