TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the soil failure and the corresponding force-distance behavior for flat rigid tines in clay soil under quasi-static conditions and found that the nature of the failure depends on the soil moisture level.

TL;DR: In this paper, a model for predicting displacement-dependent lateral earth pressure was proposed based on an earth pressure − displacement relationship commonly observed in practice, and the proposed model is a monotone model.

TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive approach to simulate the effects of an explosion occurring inside a buried infrastructure tunnel on the soil surface and on nearby tunnels is presented, taking into account both bulk and shear elastic plastic behavior, including the effect of the soil pressure on the yield strength for the stress tensor deviator.
