Dynamic soil-structure interaction-comparison of FEM model with experimental results /

Linearly elastic finite element models are developed for particular scale-model gravity retaining wall structures. The sand is modeled as a homogenous isotropic linearly elastic continuum. Models are created in four different configurations to represent twenty different laboratory experiments. Th...
