Distribution of earth pressure behind retaining walls considering different approaches

In this paper, the earth pressure distribution generated behind a retaining wall is estimated by the finite element method and compared with that obtained from classical earth pressure theories. In this analysis, the behavior of the soil is assumed to be elasto-plastic with Mohr-Coulomb failure crit...
