Abstract

Abstract

Based on soil plasticity and limit analysis theory,the second failure surface of backfill behind retaining wall with gentle back surface are studied from two view points of maximum active soil pressure and minimum resistive overturning safety factor,and it is further considered that the minimum resistive overturning safety factor is the best approach to studying the failure mechanism of backfill under complex back surface conditions of retaining structures.
