    Bishop's effective stress

    This document verifies that groundwater flow principles are correctly implemented in PLAXIS. Bishop's effective stress (Bishop & Blight, 1963) is used in PLAXIS to handle unsaturated soil conditions. An example is used to verify the capability of PLAXIS to calculate Bishop's effective stress.
