Studies of the Optimal Hardening Parameters in Sandy Soil Shear Hardening Constitutive Model

Abstract:

Through a series of drainage analysis of plane strain compression tests on the Toyoura sand under different stress path, we found that the plastic shear strain and stress path of great relevance. But due to that a yield locus represents a specific yield level and usually do not related with stress paths, the hardening parameter of the parametric should also has nothing to do with the stress path. This article based on the analysis of the laboratory test results, put forward a stress path-independent plastic shear strain energy modified function as shear yield hardening parameters. Then based on the above type of energy state function proposed to build a sandy soil elasto-plastic constitutive model, and compared with corresponding numerical calculation results to make an effective verification.
