The scope of this paper is to develop a new three-part wedge method to analyze translational failure when using an engineered berm to increase landfill space. The possible failure face may pass over the back slope of the berm or pass under the b[...]

Results from dynamic penetration tests are traditionally interpreted on the basis of empirical correlations, this being a frequent criticism to these tests. An alternative rational method of interpretation is proposed in this paper from which th[...]

A soil when sheared ultimately reaches a steady-state condition at which it deforms at a constant shear stress, effective normal stress, and void ratio. Various systems in nature dynamically evolve similarly from some initial condition, to a fin[...]
