Concerning the authors' results obtained by the finite difference analysis (FLAC), Fig. 17 shows that for <I> < 35, there
is good agreement with the discussers' results using both the
finite element method and the limit analysis theory. The difference increases with <1>. The maximum percent difference is
about 16% with the discussers' finite element solution and
does not exceeds 23% with the discussers' limit analysis solution.
Calculations performed by means of the finite-element program CESAR become more difficult for great <I> values or
when the difference between <I> and 1\1 increases. The number
of increments must be large for a cohesionless soil (c = 0).
The discussers' conclusions conform to the authors' results.
