A Discrete Limit Analysis of Granular Materials Including Effects of the Solid Contact

摘要: Abstract Previously the present authors have developed a discrete method of limit analysis solids using new element model entitled “Rigid Bodies-Spring Model” and proved its validity for collapse where slip failure is predominant. In case granular materials, however, influence crack initiation due to tensile load often can not be neglected. view this Takeuchi algorithm recently which may applicable analyse coupled slippage cracking. paper, described with numerical example on anker block problem.
