Abstract
2D numerical models are used for resolving plane strain problems and plane stress problems while many geotechnical problems are actually three-dimensional. An approach is developed in the paper to handle some three-dimensional geotechnical problems with 2D numerical models based on some assumptions of stress spreading with depth. The approach is verified with FLAC3D model and the results based on the approach agree well with the 3D model results.
