Strain-softening Effects

Strain-Softening Effects is a mechanical behavior in geotechnical materials characterized by a reduction in shear strength subsequent to peak stress under continued deformation, distinguishing it from perfectly plastic or strain-hardening behaviors in limit equilibrium analysis of slope stability.
