Abstract:
Based on the plastic flow theory of soils, an elastoplastic constitutive model for describing the dynamic response behavior of the saturated sands is developed. The total deformation of soils consists of three parts: elastic strain, the plastic strain related to the volumetric yielding mechanism and the plastic strain related to the shear yielding mechanism. The difference of soils behavior in virgin loading contrast to unloading and reloading can be reflected by adopting different model parameters. By comparing the results calculated by the model with the test data, it is shown that the presented constitutive model can describe the response behavior of saturated sands subjected to cyclic loading with reasonable accuracy. The number of the model parameters is limited and their value can be calibrated through conventional triaxial compression test and hydrostatic pressure test. In the meantime, the form of the constitutive model is simple and it is suitable for numerical calculation.
