In Chapter 4, analytical solutions were presented for cavity expansion and contraction in soils modelled by critical state strain hardening/softening models. Although critical state models are widely used in soil mechanics, other types of plasticity models have also been used to describe the non-linear stress-strain behaviour of soil and rock. For this reason, this chapter describes some additional solutions for cavity problems in elastic-plastic strain hardening/softening soils and rocks.
