    Notes: The finite layer techniques introduced in Part 1 of this paper are extended to allow the analysis of circular or general loadings applied to horizontally layered anisotropic materials. The analysis is considerably simplified through the use of Hankel transforms (circular loadings) and double Fourier transformations (general loadings).Once again an exact flexibility matrix is found for each finite layer, and it is shown that this flexibility matrix has precisely the same form whether the loading is a strip, circular or general loading. The flexibility matrix has the advantage of not becoming singular for incompressible materials as is the case for the stiffness matrices used in a conventional finite strip analysis.Examples are given of the behaviour of circular and general (rectangular) loadings applied to multilayered anisotropic materials. It is also shown by means of an example, that the method is extremely useful for analysis of problems involving incompressible materials.

    Notes: It is well known that the analysis of a horizontally layered elastic material can be considerably simplified by the introduction of a Fourier or Hankel transform and the application of the finite layer approach. The conventional finite layer (and finite element) stiffness approach breaks down when applied to incompressible materials. In this paper these difficulties are overcome by the introduction of an exact finite layer flexibility matrix. This flexibility matrix can be assembled in much the same way as the stiffness matrix and does not suffer from the disadvantage of becoming infinite for an incompressible material. The method is illustrated by a series of examples drawn from the geotechnical area, where it is observed that many natural and man-made deposits are horizontally layered and where it is necessary to consider incompressible behaviour for undrained conditions.

    Notes: In this paper an economical method for calculating the stress and displacement fields in an elastic body for a range of Poission's ratios is given. The solution is expanded as a power series in Poission's ratio, the coefficients of the series being determined successively. The range of convergence of the solution is examined, and it is shown that the power series converges for values of Poission's ratio in the range zero to a half, provided a suitable point of expansion is chosen. Particular features of the method are firstly that only one effective inversion of the stiffness matrix, for Poission's ratio zero, is required to obtain the solution for all Poission's ratio and secondly that no special formulation for an incompressible material is required.

    Notes: In this paper the correspondence principle is used to reduce the equations of viscoelasticity to the equations of elasticity by means of a Laplace transform.The finite element technique is used to approximate these equations in Laplace transform space. The approximating equations are then inverted to obtain a set of simultaneous Volterra integral equations. It is then shown how the introduction of certain auxiliary variables can be used to develop an integration scheme which considerably reduces computer storage requirements.The conditions under which this integration scheme is conditionally stable and unconditionally stable are both investigated and illustrated by means of examples.

    Notes: A method is presented which enables the calculation of the settlement behaviour of circular or general loadings on horizontally layered soils which undergo secondary or ‘creep’ consolidation. The method of analysis involves the use of Hankel or double Fourier transforms to simplify the equations governing the consolidation process. This leads to great savings in the preparation of data and the amount of computer storage needed to solve problems involving three-dimensional loadings since such problems are essentially reduced to that of one spatial dimension: Solutions are then obtained by a ‘forward marching’ process where solutions at a particular time are found from those at a previous time. A method is presented which eliminates the need to store the solutions at all previous time steps, and is therefore very efficient. The theory is illustrated by examples of the behaviour of rectangular and circular loadings on layered soil profiles.

    Notes: A method for the analysis of the consolidation of a horizontally layered soil under plane conditions is developed. The method depends upon the transformation of the governing equations by a Fourier trasform. This transformation has the effect of reducing the partial differential equations of consolidation to ordinary differential equations. The ordinary differential equations are then solved using a finite layer or finite difference approach. Once the solution in the transformed plane has been found, the actual solution is synthesized by Fourier inversion. The method leads to a considerable reduction in the amount of core storage necessary for solution and enables the solution of quite significant problems to be obtained on a mini-computer.

    Notes: Analytic solutions to the problem of the time-settlement behaviour of raft foundations have been limited in the past to flexible or rigid loadings, and have treated the foundation as being completely permeable. In this paper, solutions are presented for smooth circular rafts of any flexibility causing consolidation of a deep homogeneous clay layer, where the raft may be considered permeable or impermeable.Results for the time-dependent behaviour of contact stresses, pore pressures, raft displacements and moment in the raft are presented.

    Notes: Solutions are presented for the behaviour of layered soil or rock deposits which contain a heat source. Such a problem arises when high level nuclear waste is placed in deep underground depositaries, as the waste continues to generate heat for many years after placement. This heating of the surrounding soil or rock may lead to expansion and cracking with subsequent contamination of ground water. Results are presented for heat soureces with different decay rates and for heat sources in layers of material with different coefficients of expansion. An example using realistic data for rock is also given.The solution method involves applying Fourier or Hankel transforms to the field quantities and this reduces the two-dimensional or axisymmetric problem to one involving a single spatial dimension. In cases where the soil or rock is horizontally layered, the method has great advantages over other numerical methods such as finite element or finite difference techniques, since little computer storage and data preparation time is required.Solution of the time-dependent problem is carried out by applying Laplace transforms to the field variables, obtaining solutions and then using numerical means to invert the transformed solutions. This enables easy solution of problems involving time-dependent (i.e. decaying) heat sources.
