SF 9311 THEORETICAL SOIL MECHANICS L T P C
4 0 0 4
OBJECTIVE:
Students are expected to understand elastic and plastic behaviour of soil and
solve problems related to settlement and stability of soils structures.
UNIT I THEORY OF ELASTICITY 10
Introduction –Material behaviour – Idealistic behaviour – elastic, viscous and plastic -
Elasticity and stability problems, concept of stress and strain – plane stress, plane
strain and axisymmetric problems – equation of equilibrium and compatibility – stress
functions.
UNIT II STRESSES AND DISPLACEMENTS (ELASTIC SOLUTIONS) 15
Stresses in elastic half-space medium by external loads – fundamental solutions –
Boussinesq, Flamant, Kelvin and Mindlin solution – Applications of fundamental
solutions – Anisotropic and non-homogeneous linear continuum – Influence charts -
elastic displacement.
UNIT III LIMIT EQUILIBRIUM ANALYSIS 12
Limit equilibrium analysis – perfectly plastic material – stress – strain relationship –
stress and displacement field calculations – slip line solutions for undrained and
drained loading.
UNIT IV LIMIT ANALYSIS 15
Limit analysis – principles of virtual work – theorems of plastic collapse – Mechanism
for plane plastic collapse – Simple solutions for drained and undrained loading –
stability of slopes, cuts and retaining structures.
UNIT V FLOW THROUGH POROUS MEDIA 8
Flow through porous media – Darcy’s law – General equation of flow – steady state
condition – solution by flow net – fully saturated conditions.
TOTAL: 60 PERIODS
