Thermo-plasticity of Soils at Various Saturation States: a Constitutive Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a highly-coupled thermo-plasticity model for unsaturated soils. The effect of temperature on the mechanics of unsaturated soils is briefly addressed. Then the equations of the developed model, so-called ACMEG-TS, are detailed. Finally, the model is validated by the means of comparisons with experiments. This constitutive model constitutes an effective tool for modelling the thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) behaviour of geomaterials involved in the confinement of nuclear waste disposal.

A simple and efficient plasticity-fracture constitutive model for confined concrete
A plasticity-fracture constitutive model is presented for prediction of the behavior of confined plain concrete. A three-parameter yield surface is used to define the elastic limit. Volumetric plastic strain is defined as hardening parameter, which together with a nonlinear plastic potential forms a non-associated flow rule. The use of non-associated flow rule improves the prediction of the dil...
متن کاملA Constitutive Model for Sands
In this paper, an elastoplastic constitutive model is presented for predicting sandy soil behavior under monotonic and cyclic loadings. The model is based on the CJS3 model that takes into account deviatoric and isotropic mechanisms of plasticity. The flow rule in deviatoric mechanism is non-associated and a kinematic hardening law controls the evolution of the 
yield surface. In the present...
متن کاملConstitutive Model for Multi-laminate Induced Anisotropic Double Hardening Elastic-plasticity of Sand
A constitutive multi-laminate based elastic-plastic model developed to be capable of accounting induced anisotropic behavior of granular material such as sand. The fabric feature or grain orientation characteristic effects through medium are considered in a rational way under any complex stress path, including cyclic loading. The salient feature of the developed model is a non-associative on pl...

متن کاملSubstructure Model for Concrete Behavior Simulation under Cyclic Multiaxial Loading
This paper proposes a framework for the constitutive model based on the semi-micromechanical aspects of plasticity, including damage progress for simulating behavior of concrete under multiaxial loading. This model is aimed to be used in plastic and fracture analysis of both regular and reinforced concrete structures, for the framework of sample plane crack approach. This model uses multilamina...
