INTRODUCTION• Constitutive models – numerical calculations of boundary value problems• Very simple to extremely complex• Prerequisite knowledge about yield surfaces and complicated hardening

rules• Basic Soil features – nonlinearity, irreversibility, failure criterion, stress-

volumetric coupling, deformation history, anisotropy, time-dependence etc. • Models - simulate at least some primary features• Tested with experimental results obtained from more than one apparatus

What is Hypoplasticity ?

• An alternate to Elastoplastic theory• A plastic model without using yield surface• Captures the non linearity in the stress-strain relation from the very

beginning itselfGeneral form in tensorial equation:

- Stress rate – Actual Stress – Deformation rate

Ref: D.Kolymbas (1985)4

5

Why Hypoplasticity ?

• Simplicity.• Single constitutive equation (for loading and unloading).• No decomposition in to elastic and plastic deformation.• Takes into account :i. nonlinear stress-strain relationii. pressure sensitivityiii. shear and volumetric couplingiv. dilatant volume change• Can be extended to include many parameters

Ref: D.Kolymbas (2000)

Analysis• Parametric analysis in constitutive equations

• Incremental strain with respect to increment in Mean stress, deviatoric

stress, Maximum shear stress and Stress ratio

• Void ratio and initial stress varied.

• Void ratio has a strong influence on the simulation results.

• Influence of parameters in hypoplastic constitutive equations on

simulation results also studied

Observations• Cyclic triaxial undrained test can be modelled using the same

hypoplastic constitutive equation with the modification of parameters. • Model can be used to simulate small strain amplitude cyclic tests.• Cyclic degradation is not captured completely at large strain

amplitude.

Reason: Model considered grain structure history as a significant factor resulting in difficulty in obtaining first loading curve. *Model without considering grain structure used for cyclic tests.*n parameter has to be degraded to simulate the degradation behavior.

Constitutive Equations

Direct Simple Shear test

• Analysis, simulation and parametric studies done similar to previous case• Model can be used to simulated cyclic behavior for small strain

amplitude only.• For cyclic tests, shape of the hysteresis loops are better than triaxial

test simulation.

Comparison of modelsWhen C2 set to zero

22

Calibration of parameters

With experimental observations, the parameters involved in the constitutive equation can be deduced.Example:• C1 -from CSL obtained from triaxial compression tests• C2 -from CSL obtained from triaxial extension tests• hs and n – from oedometer tests• a and b - from isotropic compression tests

Conclusion

• A single equation can be used to simulate the soil behavior

• Stress state is completely defined and any type of deformation can be

found out

• Different types of soil behavior can be simulated (contractive and

dilative or only contractive or monotonic soil liquefaction)

• Influence of each parameter can be well identified
