Weighted Friction Angle given Mobilised Friction Angle Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Weighted Friction Angle = (Submerged Unit Weight*Angle of Mobilized Friction)/Saturated Unit Weight
φ_w = (γ^'*φ_m)/γ_sat
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Weighted Friction Angle - (Measured in Radian) - Weighted Friction Angle is an effective measure combining materials' friction properties and their relative contributions in geotechnical engineering for stability analysis.
Submerged Unit Weight - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - Submerged Unit Weight is the effective weight of the soil per unit volume when it is submerged in water.
Angle of Mobilized Friction - (Measured in Radian) - Angle of Mobilized Friction is the slope angle at which an object starts sliding due to applied force.
Saturated Unit Weight - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - Saturated Unit Weight is the value of the unit weight of the soil when the soil is completely saturated with water that is all the soil pores are completely filled with water.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Submerged Unit Weight: 31 Newton per Cubic Meter --> 31 Newton per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Angle of Mobilized Friction: 40 Degree --> 0.698131700797601 Radian (Check conversion here)
Saturated Unit Weight: 9.98 Newton per Cubic Meter --> 9.98 Newton per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

φ_w = (γ^'*φ_m)/γ_sat --> (31*0.698131700797601)/9.98

Evaluating ... ...
