Abstract
The earth pressure of slope retaining structure is one of the problems that are often encountered in geotechnical engineering but have not yet been fully understood and well solved. At present, there are still a lot of problems that need to be solved. For complex conditions such as stratified soil or containing ground water, the distribution law of earth pressure and the displacement mode of retaining structure need to be further studied. This paper summarizes the existing research on earth pressure of slope retain structures. According to the research methods, it is divided into three categories: research on the theoretical calculation method of earth pressure, research on earth pressure by model test, and research on earth pressure by numerical simulation. Focused discussions are carried out respectively, and the previous research results are summarized. At present, there are still a lot of problems that need to be solved in the research of earth pressure of slope retaining structure, and the calculation formula of earth pressure and the assumed fracture surface of earth are lack of experimental verification and engineering measurement.
期刊介绍:
Frontiers in Earth Science is an open-access journal that aims to bring together and publish on a single platform the best research dedicated to our planet.
This platform hosts the rapidly growing and continuously expanding domains in Earth Science, involving the lithosphere (including the geosciences spectrum), the hydrosphere (including marine geosciences and hydrology, complementing the existing Frontiers journal on Marine Science) and the atmosphere (including meteorology and climatology). As such, Frontiers in Earth Science focuses on the countless processes operating within and among the major spheres constituting our planet. In turn, the understanding of these processes provides the theoretical background to better use the available resources and to face the major environmental challenges (including earthquakes, tsunamis, eruptions, floods, landslides, climate changes, extreme meteorological events): this is where interdependent processes meet, requiring a holistic view to better live on and with our planet.
The journal welcomes outstanding contributions in any domain of Earth Science.
The open-access model developed by Frontiers offers a fast, efficient, timely and dynamic alternative to traditional publication formats. The journal has 20 specialty sections at the first tier, each acting as an independent journal with a full editorial board. The traditional peer-review process is adapted to guarantee fairness and efficiency using a thorough paperless process, with real-time author-reviewer-editor interactions, collaborative reviewer mandates to maximize quality, and reviewer disclosure after article acceptance. While maintaining a rigorous peer-review, this system allows for a process whereby accepted articles are published online on average 90 days after submission.
General Commentary articles as well as Book Reviews in Frontiers in Earth Science are only accepted upon invitation.
