CALCULATING AND LIMITING LOCAL STRAINS IN GEOMEMBRANES FROM GRAVEL INDENTATIONS

Short-term tensile strains that arise from local gravel indentations in municipal solid waste landfill base geomembrane liners are investigated with an emphasis on quantifying how strains are obtained and providing methods for limiting long-term local geomembrane strains below allowable levels. This...
