Influence of Dilation Angle of Soil on Seismic Displacements of Gravity Retaining Walls using Upper Bound Limit Analysis Method

In this paper, permanent displacements of gravity retaining walls with back and front fill under seismic excitation due to sliding is investigated. In this regard, by using the upper bound theorem of limit analysis, an expression is presented for obtaining the yield acceleration coefficient and also...
