Abstract

An analytical description of fibre reinforced sand peak shear strength in direct shear loading conditions is presented. In geotechnical engineering, the direct shear conditions are directly applicable to the sliding of a long slope. An energy-based homogenization technique is employed, and it is shown that the simulated results are in a good agreement with the experimental data.
