Evolution of shear localisation in earth pressure problems of a retaining wall
PublikacjaPrzedstawiono wyniki numerycznej analizy formacji stref ścinania w materiale sypkim podczas problemów parcia i odporu gruntu za ścianą oporową. Zachowanie suchego piasku podczas testów ściskania w płaskim stanie odkształcenia było analizowane stosując metodę elementów skończonych i mikropolarne hypoplastyczne prawo konstytutywne. Podczas obliczeń numerycznych zwrócono szczególną uwagę na wpływ różnych przemieszczeń ściany na lokalizację...

Discrete simulations of shear zone patterning in sand in earth pressure problems of a retaining wall
PublikacjaW artykule przedstawiono wyniki doświadczalne i teoretyczne naporu piasku na ściankę szczelną. Obliczenia wykonano stosując metodę elementów dyskretnych. Wyniki porównano z wynikami uzyskanymi metodą elementów skończonych na bazie mikropolarnego hipoplastycznego prawa materiałowego oraz z wynikami doświadczalnymi uzyskanymi metodą korelacji obrazów cyfrowych. Wykonano obszerne studia parametryczne.

Optimization of Stabilizing Systems in Protection of Cultural Heritage: The Case of the Historical Retaining Wall in the Wisłoujście Fortress
PublikacjaThe aim of the paper is to propose new quantitative criteria for selecting the optimal method of securing and repairing a historical object, which take into account Structural, Conservation and Architectural aspects (the S–C–A method). Construction works on cultural heritage sites tend to be challenging and require an interdisciplinary approach. Therefore, they are strictly related to the philosophy of sustainable development which...

Lateral load resistance of piled raft foundation - A case study of District Jail, Saidu Sharif, Swat Pakistan
PublikacjaPiled raft foundations under lateral loads are usually designed as a pile group, ignoring the contribution of the raft to resisting the lateral loads. In this paper, a case study was performed to determine the raft's contribution to the lateral load resistance. This study analyzed a pile-supported reinforced concrete retaining wall for two different foundation conditions, i.e., pile group foundation and pile raft foundation. Pile group...

Discrete Modelling of Micro-structural Phenomena in Granular Shear Zones
PublikacjaThe micro-structure evolution in shear zones in cohesionless sand for quasi-static problems was analyzed with a discrete element method (DEM). The passive sand failure for a very rought retaining wall undergoing horizontal translation towards the sand backfill was discussed. To simulate the behaviour of sand, the spherical discrete element model was used with elements in the form of rigid spheres with contacts moments.

Comparative modeling of shear localization in granular bodies with FEM and DEM
PublikacjaThe intention of the paper is to compare the calculations of shear zones in granular bodies using two different approaches: a continuum and a discrete one. In the first case, the FEM based on a micro-polar hypoplastic constitutive law was used. In the second case, the DEM was taken advantage of, where contact moments were taken into account to model grain roughness. The comparative calculations were performed for a passive case...

Application of soil nailing technique for protection and preservation historical buildings
PublikacjaSoil nailing is one of the recent in situ techniques used for soil improvement and in stabilizing slopes. The process of soil nailing consists of reinforcing the natural ground with relatively small steel bars or metal rods, grouted in the pre-drilled holes. This method has a wide range of applications for stabilizing deep excavations and steep slopes. Soil nailing has recently become a very common method of slope stabilisation...

Structured deformation of granular material in the state of active earth pressure
PublikacjaThe paper focuses on the ability of granular materials to undergo structured deformation by analysing the data from the retaining wall model tests and discrete element simulations. The structured deformation means the movement of a granular material which produces a stable, regular pattern of multiple shear bands. The paper's primary purpose is to study this kind of deformation for the selected data representing the state of active...
