Abstract
This paper presents numerical applications of a non-coaxial soil model, in which an anisotropic yield criterion is incorporated, to analyze two-dimensional strip-footing problems. Semi-analytical solutions of the bearing capacity for a strip footing that rests on anisotropic, weightless, cohesive-frictional soils are developed based on the slip line method. The degrees of influences of soil anisotropy and non-coaxiality on the bearing capacity of the strip footing are examined. From the viewpoint of strength and stiffness, it is necessary to incorporate both the strength anisotropy and non-coaxiality into numerical simulations and practical designs of geotechnical problems.
