A literature review and a computer study are conducted to identify
the requirements of finite element programs for the specific use of discrete
analyses of reinforced soil structures. The utility of six commercially
available programs are appraised with respect to the identified
requirements. The results of the study are directed...
As part of a long term study to evaluate the dynamic properties of naturally frozen soils, resonant frequency and cyclic triaxial
tests were conducted on Fairbanks silt samples from the U.S. Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory Permafrost Tunnel, Fox, Alaska. The test methods subject right cylindrical test
specimens...
