Effects of soil spatial variability on axisymmetric versus plane strain analyses of ground improvement by prefabricated vertical drains

Although soil consolidation around an individual drain is more appropriately analyzed as an axisymmetric problem, most previous numerical studies regarding soil consolidation via prefabricated vertical drains were conducted on the basis of plane strain conditions so as to achieve run-time efficiency...
