| contents | This work proposes the Least Squares with Virtual Displacements (LSVD) method to obtain the shear strength of n soil samples for the cohesionless, frictionless and mixed resistance conditions. Finding a common tangent line of more than two samples may not have an exact solution, especially if there are measurement errors. LSVD is an iterative method to find the best common tangent line or function to the n soil samples. There are soils that can be modeled with a linear failure envelope but the LSVD can be formulated in different forms, adapting itself to other criterion too, like the logarithmic failure envelope. The tested data is analyzed with LSVD and compared between other commonly used methods, like p-q method and CTPAC. The soils' samples were subjected to random noise to simulate errors from measurements to study the method's results. Also with that analysis a common reference point can be found to compare the methods given that all of them take different points of the Mohr Circles. |
