摘要

This paper presents an approach to use the method of characteristics in plane strain problems with failure criteria other than the Mohr-Coulomb and Tresca. Although the method is of general validity, an instance of application is presented for the evaluation of the vertical plastic collapse load of a rigid shallow strip footing resting on a purely frictional material with no lateral surcharge. A comparison with results from finite-element analyses confirms the correctness of the approach.
