Stability Numbers for Unsupported Conical Excavations in Multi-Layered Cohesive Soils

This paper presents the results of a numerical analysis into undrained stability of conical excavation in multi-layered clays. Stability predictions for a wide range of geometric and material combinations are calculated by finite element analyses. The results from the present analysis are expressed...
