Performance-based evaluation of seismic-displacement resistance of geosynthetic-reinforced soil walls using FFDM
The force-equilibrium-based Finite Displacement Method (FFDM) and the conventional Newmark’s method are reviewed and applied to three revisited sites of geosynthetic reinforced soil retaining walls (GRSW) subjected to strong ground shaking. The strengths and limitations of both methods are examined through their pred...
