Abstract
The non-linear relationship between displacement and earth pressure indicates that the earth pressure varies with the displacement, which affects the mechanical analysis of retaining structures. A model, based on commonly observed characteristics of earth pressure-displacement relationship, is developed to describe the relationship between earth pressure and displacement. The solution of the proposed is given in the paper. The comparison between the literature data and the predicted values from proposed model shows that the proposed model provides a good prediction of lateral earth pressure at relatively small displacement. Moreover, the results indicate that the displacement has a significant effect on earth pressures, which justifies the necessity of the proposed model.
