Abstract
The paper presents a study of the frictional behaviour of geosynthetics used for municipal solid waste landfills. Direct shear tests of several geomembrane/geotextile interfaces were performed to investigate the shear behaviour. Furthermore, analytical and numerical models were developed to describe the observed behaviour, especially to simulate progressive geomembrane/geotextile interface failure and the factors controlling its significance.
