Discrete element analysis of structural characteristics of stepped reinforced soil retaining wall

Based on the laboratory large scale model test of the stepped reinforced soil retaining wall (RSRW), the discrete element numerical model of stepped RSRW is set up by particle flow code. The displacement of particles, stress distribution, force chain distribution, and potential failure surface of th...
