Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
This paper presents a two-surface plasticity constitutive model based on critical-state soil mechanics and describes a practical process for the determination of its parameters. Determination of the constitutive model parameters can be done in a hierarchical manner, starting with the model parameters that have the most bearing on sand behavior and that can be determined using routine experimental procedures. Most parameters can be determined through simple curve fitting through experimental data points. The constitutive model is calibrated against experimental data for Toyoura sand, clean Ottawa sand and mixtures of Ottawa sand with non-plastic silt. The model simulates closely the mechanical response of sands under various loading conditions and predicts both drained and undrained behavior of sands at small and large strains using the actual small-strain shear modulus, as measured in resonant column or bender elements tests, along with realistic values of Poisson's ratio. Performance of the model in simulating sand response is demonstrated for a variety of initial states and loading conditions. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
