Abstract
A new design of geotextile sandbag embankment, named non-uniform geotextiles reinforcement, is proposed in this study. This proposed design optimizes the arrangement of geotextiles in the traditional design to increase the strength of the embankment base to improve its stability. The behaviour of the reinforced embankments is investigated using finite-element modelling. The advantages of this new design are elaborated via comparison with the traditional design. A design framework of the construction of the embankments is established based on a parametric study.
期刊介绍:
The primary aim of the IJOPE is to serve engineers and researchers worldwide by disseminating technical information of permanent interest in the fields of offshore, ocean, polar energy/resources and materials engineering. The IJOPE is the principal periodical of The International Society of Offshore and Polar Engineers (ISOPE), which is very active in the dissemination of technical information and organization of symposia and conferences in these fields throughout the world.
Theoretical, experimental and engineering research papers are welcome. Brief reports of research results or outstanding engineering achievements of likely interest to readers will be published in the Technical Notes format.
