The satisfactory performance of the soil-nailed walls during strong ground motions and their
superior flexibility compared to the other guard structures makes them a preferable …

Soil is a basic geomaterial in the geotechnical and geological engineering. It has been
widely realized that there exists inherent spatial variability in the soil parameters for …

The stability analysis of passive bolt-reinforced rock slopes under seismic loads is
investigated within the framework of the kinematic approach of limit analysis theory. A …

Natural soil slopes are often reinforced with nails to stabilize them against earthquake
loading. Although pseudo-static method is widely used in designing such slopes; it fails to …

Slope failures, is a common issue in construction industry, such that engineers have to avoid
its risk on human lives and properties by an appropriate technical design of stabilizing …

Soil nailing is an in-situ soil reinforcement technique that is used to enhance the stability of
land slopes, retaining walls and excavations. This technique involves the installation of …

Geotechnical and earthquake engineering put a great deal of emphasis on slope stability
studies under dynamic loads. The input ground motions and the dynamic characteristics of …

Under the impact of earthquake, even if the slopes do not fail, the integrity of rock slope
structure would be damaged subjected to the seismic motion. The process of damage …

In this study, the effect of pulse like and non-pulsed near field records on the displacement
and axial force of the nail in the soil nail wall has been investigated. Pulse liked records are …

On hill roads of Nepal, soil nailed walls provide more economical design in the steep cut
slopes as they minimize the quantity of excavation, occupy less space, have easier …
