title = "Design of geosynthetic tube resting on winkler foundation",
abstract = "Geosynthetic tubes have been used in projects for coastal protection, dyke construction, flood control and dewatering waste sludge purposes in many countries. Most of the existing solutions for geosynthetic tubes assumed that the foundation soil that supports geosynthetic tubes is rigid. In this paper, a two dimensional analysis of geosynthetic tube resting on deformable foundation soil is presented. The soil is assumed to be a Winkler type with a constant subgrade modulus. A numerical method using the finite-difference program FLAC [1] is presented to evaluate the limitations of the solutions. The results obtained from the method proposed in this paper are compared with those given by Plaut and Suherman [2] as verification. The differences between these solutions are also discussed.",
