Experimental and DEM simulation of sandy soil reinforced with H–V inclusions in plane strain tests

ABSTRACT: Horizontal–vertical (H–V) reinforcing elements are a new type of soil reinforcement in geotechnical engineering. The advantages of this reinforcement have been validated by a series of tr...
