Do you happen to know why users are stipulated to sketch out a table encompassing the mobilized friction angle and the plastic shear strain in CY?

07 July 2016 0 5K Report

My question is that whilst FLAC3D can calculate Gamma-P via the equation below in CY model, why did Itasca select the uncanny way to determine the plastic shear strain? Let me highlight that Phi-m is easily estimated by the ratio (q/2p).
