Abstract
The study investigates the interaction between geogrids and two distinct granular backfill materials, Yamuna sand and coal mine overburden through a combination of laboratory experiments and numerical simulations. It evaluates the physical and mechanical properties of coalmine overburden and Yamuna sand, and the pullout performance of geogrid embedded in both materials. A large-scale pullout box was utilised to conduct the experiments, and the results showed that coalmine overburden offers higher pullout resistance than Yamuna sand. The effect of physical parameters such as elasticity of geogrid, geogrid geometry and angle of inclination were analysed using the discrete element method. The pullout resistance of geogrids mainly depends on the elastic properties of the material. The study also shows the existence of an optimum spacing between longitudinal and transverse ribs.
期刊介绍：
Acta Geotechnica is an international journal devoted to the publication and dissemination of basic and applied research in geoengineering – an interdisciplinary field dealing with geomaterials such as soils and rocks. Coverage emphasizes the interplay between geomechanical models and their engineering applications. The journal presents original research papers on fundamental concepts in geomechanics and their novel applications in geoengineering based on experimental, analytical and/or numerical approaches. The main purpose of the journal is to foster understanding of the fundamental mechanisms behind the phenomena and processes in geomaterials, from kilometer-scale problems as they occur in geoscience, and down to the nano-scale, with their potential impact on geoengineering. The journal strives to report and archive progress in the field in a timely manner, presenting research papers, review articles, short notes and letters to the editors.
