Objectives of the Course | Stress-strain-time behavior of soils under isotropic and axial loads is investigated as one dimensional and two dimensional, taking into account the initial conditions. Considering the drainage conditions, the changes in the stress and shape changes are calculated by taking advantage of the elasticity and plasticity theories and the conditions for reaching the displacement condition at the ground are defined. |
Contents of the Course | Stress and deformation definitions in soils with continuous media acceptance, traces of stress. Laboratory tests to investigate the mechanical behavior of soils, isotropic and one dimensional consolidation, shear strength tests, failure criteria, soil parameters for design / numerical analysis of behavior of soils. |
