Popis: Starting with governing equations of a saturated soil with anisotropic permeability and based on multiple integral transforms, an analytical layer-element equation is established explicitly in the Laplace-Fourier transformed domain. A global matrix of layered soil can be obtained by assembling a set of analytical layer-elements, which is further solved in the transformed domain by considering boundary conditions. The numerical inversion of Laplace-Fourier transform is employed to acquire the actual solution. Numerical analysis for 3-D consolidation with anisotropic permeability of a layered soil system is presented, and the influence of anisotropy of permeability on the consolidation behavior is discussed.
