FAQ

What is the Prandtls Cohesion?

Prandtls Cohesion is the component of shear strength of a rock or soil that is independent of interparticle friction. Prandtls Cohesion is usually measured using the Kilogram-Force per Square Meter for Pressure. Note that the value of Prandtls Cohesion is always positive.

Can the Prandtls Cohesion be negative?

No, the Prandtls Cohesion, measured in Pressure cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure Prandtls Cohesion?

Prandtls Cohesion is usually measured using the Kilogram-Force per Square Meter[kgf/m²] for Pressure. Pascal[kgf/m²], Kilopascal[kgf/m²], Bar[kgf/m²] are the few other units in which Prandtls Cohesion can be measured.
