Undrained Stability of Unsupported Rectangular Excavations: Anisotropy and Non-Homogeneity in 3D

The stability of unsupported rectangular excavations in undrained clay is examined under the influence of anisotropy and heterogeneity using the three-dimensional finite element upper and lower bound limit analysis with the Anisotropic Undrained Shear (AUS) failure criterion. Three anisotropic undra...
