    Notes: The main purpose of this investigation is to study the state of stress of layered rocks forming slopes of deep river valleys. For this purpose averaging technique and a variant of the Variation-Difference Method are used. Because of the averaging method, equivalent homogeneous properties of layered elastic medium are determined. The paper has two parts. The first one is devoted to the analysis of a static stress-strain state of the slopes under gravity. The rock mass in the second part is subjected to dynamic loading caused by an earthquake. As a result of the numerical solution of the raised problems, the stress distribution in slopes and at the base of a deep canyon-like river valley was obtained. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: An anisotropic hardening model for soils is proposed by applying the concept of a field of hardening moduli developed previously for metals. Besides the yield surface, a set of nesting surfaces in the stress-space specifies the variation of hardening moduli during the deformation process. Both drained and undrained soil behaviour can be treated and distortional as well as volumetric strain cycles can be considered. The model can be applied in studying soil behaviour under cyclic loading and in particular to describe densification or liquefaction phenomena.

    Notes: A review of the literature indicates that the elastic behaviour of granular materials is isotropic and that Poissony's ratio is constant, whereas Young's Modulus, the bulk modulus and the shear modulus vary with the mean normal stress and the deviatoric stress. A nonlinear, isotropic model for the elastic behaviour is developed on the basis of theoretical considerations involving the principle of conservation of energy. Energy is therefore neither generated not dissipated in closed-loop stress paths or in closed-loop strain paths. The framework for the model consists of Hooke's law, in which Poission's ratio is constant and Young's modulus is expressed as a power function invlving the first invariat of the stress tensor and the second invariant of the deviatoric stress tensor. The characteristics of the model are described, and the accuracy is evaluated by comparison with experimental results from triaxial tests and three-dimensional cubical triaxial tests with a variety of stress paths. Parameter determination from unloading-reloading cycles in conventional triaxial compression tests is demonstrated, typical parameter values are given for granular materials and extension of the model to soils with effective cohesion is described.

    Notes: An earlier publication1 considered the properties of circular conical failure surfaces whose axes coincide with the space diagonal in principal stress space. The present work uses a similar approach to analyse conical surfaces that are offset from the space diagonal. It is shown that cones fitted to the Mohr-Coulomb surface in triaxial compression contain a potential singularity. The occurrence and location of the singularity depends on the Mohr-Coulomb friction angle to which the surface is fitted in triaxial extension. It is shown that for a cone fitted to the same friction angle in both triaxial extension and compression, singular conditions occur when that angle reaches \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \sin ^{ - 1} \left({\sqrt 7 - 2} \right)\left({ = 40.22^\circ } \right) $\end{document}. Even cones fitted to smaller friction angles give significant overestimations of material strength for certain stress paths.

    Notes: A simple hyperbolic function is often used to illustrate typical stress-strain behaviour of geomaterials during monotonic loading. This approach has the disadvantage that the failure condition is approached asymptotically, whereas in reality failure must occur at a finite value of strain. A modified hyperbolic function with one adjustable parameter is proposed in this paper. The function is shown to be capable of spanning all likely soil stress-strain data up to and including peak strength.

    Notes: A variational model for the analysis of axially loaded piers is presented. A closed-form solution technique employing an iterative procedure, is developed to obtain the displacement and forces in the pier along its axial direction. The method is suitable for similar analyses of pile foundations. It is shown that displacements and the load distribution along the axis of the pier compare well with a more sophisticated finite element solution. Furthermore, the new model complements the well-known Reese model employing t-z curves for the analysis of settlement of axially loaded piers. This new formulation using continuum mechanics principles, distributes the work done by the applied load as compressive strain energy in the pier, and as shear strain energy in the soil, as well as, the compressive strain energy in the soil surrounding the pier and at the bottom of the pier.

    Notes: The finite element equations for non-linear, anisotropic poroelasticity are cast in the form of measurable engineering constants. Two problems of importance to the rock and petroleum industry are analysed by the FEM. First, the classical Mandel's problem with an extension to transversely isotropic case is investigated. Second, the problem of an inclined borehole is explored. In particular, the effect of material anisotropy on stress concentration near the wall with implication to borehole instability is examined in detail.

    Notes: The paper presents an analytical study of the consolidation of a semi-infinite clay layer subjected to a shear load distributed over a rectangular area. Biot's theory is made use of, along with the three displacement functions suggested by Verruijt. A complex Fourier and Laplace transformation technique enables the solution to be obtained in terms of non-dimensional parameters. Settlements and pore pressures under the loaded area are evaluated for two types of surface drainage conditions. Extension of the solutions to point loads is also suggested. The Mandel-Cryer effect is seen in the behaviour of the pore pressure.
