Lecture

Limit Analysis & Failure Calculations

Description

This lecture covers limit analysis and failure calculations in soil mechanics, focusing on the determination of the maximum load for which the soil fails. It includes topics such as ultimate limit state verification, short-term and long-term verifications, and the use of Tresca and Mohr-Coulomb failure criteria. The rigid-plastic model, shear bands, and fundamental requirements of civil engineering structures are also discussed.
