Abstract:In some cases, the water content in granular soil increases to the extent that it becomes saturated, which noticeably alters its responses. For example, the pore water pressure within saturated granular soil would increase rapidly under sudden external loading, which is equivalent to undrained or constant volume conditions. This reduces the effective stress in soil dramatically and may result in catastrophic failure. There have been different numerical approaches to analyse such a failure mechanism of soil to … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
