Critical State Concept
This lecture covers the critical state concept in geomechanics, focusing on the behavior of soils under different stress conditions. Topics include Terzaghi's effective stress, preconsolidation pressure, and the unique features of normally consolidated and overconsolidated soils. The lecture also discusses the stress paths, stress-strain responses, and shear strength definitions for both normally consolidated and overconsolidated soils.
