A critical state two-surface plasticity model for sands

Abstract: Within the critical state soil mechanics framework, the two-surface formulation of plasticity is coupled with the state parameter to construct a constitutive model for sands in a general stress space. The operation of the two-surface model takes place in the deviatoric stress-ratio space, and the state parameter is used to define the peak and dilatancy stress ratios of sand. The model is capable of realistically simulating stress–strain behaviour of sands under monotonic and cyclic, drained and undrained loadi… Show more

“…Microstructure (or fabric) is defined as the arrangement of particles, particle groups, and the associated pore space. Extensive research has been conducted to describe the constitutive behavior and deformation characteristics of granular materials using the theory of plasticity [1,2], micro-polar theory [3][4][5], discrete element method (DEM) [6][7][8], and coupled continuum-DEM models [9]. Some of these models provide excellent predictions of the strength behavior and deformation mode of granular materials; however, despite recent technological advances, calibration of such models using representative material parameters has always been a challenge.…”

“…One such model, derived from the 'Nor-Sand' of Jefferies [5] and presented by Borja and Andrade [6], utilizes a variable called 'state parameter' to describe the density of a meso-element relative to that at the critical state line for the same effective mean normal stress [5,7,8]. Where the point lies below the critical state line, is negative (denser than critical), and where it lies above, is positive (looser than critical).…”

“…Contrary to rock materials, different models exist for the cyclic behaviour of sands such as the Prevost model (Prevost, 1985;Cerfontaine et al, 2015), generalised plasticity (Mira et al, 2009) or subloading surface (Hashiguchi, 2009). The formulation proposed hereinafter is based on the bounding surface plasticity (Dafalias, 1986), the pioneering work on its application in form a two surface plasticity model for sands (Manzari & Dafalias, 1997) which was later extended further (Dafalias & Manzari, 2004;Taiebat & Dafalias, 2008;Li & Dafalias, 2012;Dafalias & Taiebat, 2016) and adopted the title of SANISAND, an acronym term for Simple ANIsotropic SAND. This framework is mainly chosen for its ability to reproduce accumulation of plastic strain upon constant amplitude cycles, for its physically based concept and relative simplicity.…”
