This paper presents a three-dimensional slope stability limit equilibrium solution for translational planar failure modes. The proposed solution uses Bishop’s average skeleton stress combined with the Mohr–Coulomb failure criterion to describe soil strength evolution under unsaturated conditions while its formulation ensures a natural and smooth transition from the unsaturated to the saturated regime and vice versa. The proposed analytical solution is evaluated by comparing its predictions with the results of the Ruedlingen slope failure experiment. The comparison suggests that, despite its relative simplicity, the analytical solution can capture the experimentally observed behaviour well and highlights the importance of considering lateral resistance together with a realistic interplay between mechanical parameters (cohesion) and hydraulic (pore water pressure) conditions.

A three-dimensional soliton model of photon with corpuscular and wave properties is proposed. We consider the Maxwell equations and assume that light induces the polarization and magnetization of vacuum only along the direction of its propagation. The nonlinear equation constructed for the vector potential is similar to the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation and comprises a dimensionless constant μ that determines the size-scale of soliton and is expected to be small. The obtained one-soliton solution of the proposed nonlinear equation describes a three-dimensional object identified as photon.
