On the basis of the force and safety factor analysis of traditional retaining walls, a new analytical method of force and displacement of the slope is suggested, the numerical theoretical solution of the stress distribution of the sliding body can be obtained under the conditions, which the stresses distribution are satisfied with the differential equilibrium equations, the boundary conditions, the compatibility equation and the macroscopic equilibrium equations. The interface stresses between the sliding body and the retaining wall is continuous, and the theoretical solution of retaining wall stress distributions can be obtained, while the stress differential equilibrium equation, the compatibility equation, macroscopic force, and moment balance equations are satisfied. The strain and displacement solutions can be obtained by using Duncan Chang and Hooke constitutive equations for the slope and the retaining wall, respectively. The transfer station of landfill in the Guandukou Town of Badong County is taken as an example, the results of the sliding body and retaining wall analysis show: The stress and strain solutions of a slope and a retaining wall can be obtained by the proposed method. The anti-slip force of the retaining wall calculated by the method in this paper contains the positive pressure and shear force along the contact surface and varies with the deformation of the slope, in addition, the numerical theoretical solution of the retaining wall shows that the retaining wall shape and material can be optimized according to the calculation results. It is feasible for the proposed analysis method of slope with retaining wall design to be run many years.
The existing stability analysis of Coulomb retaining walls is derived on the basis of four assumptions, and there is no clear description of the interaction mechanism among wedge-shaped bodies, retaining walls, and the two. This article proposes a new method for calculating the stability of Coulomb retaining walls. For soil wedges and retaining walls, numerical theoretical solutions for the stress distribution in soil wedges and retaining walls were obtained on the basis of stress balance differential equations, coordination equations, force boundary conditions, and macroscopic equilibrium. The boundary condition between the soil wedge and the retaining wall is that the resultant force and moment between the two are continuous. Assuming that the soil wedge and retaining wall satisfy the Duncan–Zhang model and the linear elastic Hooke constitutive model, respectively, the strain solutions of the soil wedge and retaining wall are obtained. Assuming that both the peak strength criteria for the soil wedges and the concrete retaining walls satisfy the Mohr–Coulomb criterion, the location of the first point of failure for the soil wedges and retaining walls is determined. Taking the garbage transfer station in Lvcongpo Town, Badong County, as an example, the analysis of the force and displacement of the retaining wall and years of operation show that the proposed method for calculating the stress and strain of the retaining wall and the new method for evaluating the stability of the retaining wall based on the point strength criterion are feasible.
