The Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion is a mathematical model that describes the shear strength of soil and other materials based on their internal friction and cohesion. This criterion helps engineers predict when materials will fail under stress by relating shear strength to normal stress through a linear relationship defined by the cohesion intercept and the angle of internal friction.
congrats on reading the definition of Mohr-Coulomb Failure Criterion. now let's actually learn it.
