this paper presents a model for prediction of the mechanical behavior of sand-gravel mixtures using generalized plasticity and critical state concepts. proposed model is based on the difference between critical state lines of sand and sand-gravel mixture in e-lnp' plane. a generalized plasticity model is considered as the base model for sandy soil. its state parameter, dilation rate and ha...

Short title: Non-classical plasticity theories and generalized normality. A simple way to define the flow rules of plasticity models is the assumption of generalized normality associated with a suitable pseudo-potential function. This approach, however, is not usually employed to formulate endochronic theory and non-linear kinematic (NLK) hardening rules as well as generalized plasticity models...
