Numerical investigation of the problem of cohesive running soils punching shear

A special mathematical model generalizing the classical model of the elasticity theory is used for the analysis of directions of the deformations localization in samples of soils with different strengths. Numerical solution of the problems is carried out by means of iterative process, the equations of the elasticity theory with initial stresses being solved on each step thereof on the basis of the finite-element method.
