Pore pressure and effective stress generation due to slowly moving loads

THIS NOTE STUDIES THE PROBLEM OF A STRIP LOAD OF UNIFORM INTENSITY WHICH MOVES WITH A UNIFORM VELOCITY ACROSS THE SURFACE OF A HALF-PLANE. THE HALF-PLANE IS ASSUMED TO BE PORE-ELASTIC. PARTICULAR ATTENTION IS PAID TO THE GENERATION AND DISSIPATION OF EXCESS PORE PRESSURES AND VOLUME CHANGES. /TRRL/
