Dynamic active earth pressure on cantilever retaining walls

► We describe a new method to evaluate the active earth pressure coefficient due to seismic loading. ► Two different configurations of cantilever wall-soil system is analysed. ► The behaviour is also studied by continuum FDM dynamic analyses. ► Permanent sliding displacement is also evaluated. ► The...
