The asymptotic state of a soil is affected by stress states and deformation constraints. Experimental results indicate that the stress ratio approaches a constant when soil is loaded along with a strain path. Such a stable state is referred to as the asymptotic state. Indeed, failure can be viewed as a special condition of asymptotic states. Therefore, the shear strength of a soil at its failure state...
