The Solution of the Nonlinear Problems of Elasticity Theory for Ground Massif Considering the Inhomogeneity Caused by Soil Moisture

The paper deals with the problem for spherical and cylindrical holes in the ground array, heterogeneity is due to changes in humidity. For many soils (clay, loess rock) is characterized by significant influence moisture on the mechanical characteristics, particularly in the modulus of elasticity and Poisson's ratio. The calculation also takes into account the non-linear nature of the soil deformation. As the mechanical models are considered thick-walled cylinder (axisymmetric problem) and the hollow ball (centrally symmetric problem), the inner radius of which is equal to a, and external - b >> a. Nonlinear problem with variable elastic parameters E and ν solved by successive approximations described in [1,2].
