Generalized solution to Coulomb’s seismic active earth pressure acting on rigid retaining wall with cohesive backfill and trial application for evaluation of seismic performance of retaining wall

In this paper, a general solution for evaluating the Coulomb-type seismic active earth pressure that acts on a rigid retaining wall from the cohesive backfill soil is shown together with its derivation process. In the proposed solution, the mobilization of the cohesion on the failure plane in the ba...
