Question: A material fails under confined compression loading with principal stresses o1 = -0.3Yc, 02= -0.6Yc, 03=-1.5Yc, where Yc is its uniaxial compressive strength. (a)
A material fails under confined compression loading with principal stresses o1 = -0.3Yc, 02= -0.6Yc, 03=-1.5Yc, where Yc is its uniaxial compressive strength. (a) Determine the constants c and o in terms of Yc based on the Mohr-Coulomb criterion. (b) Plot the intersection of the Mohr-Coulomb yield surface with the o1- 02 coordinate plane (o3 =0).
