Popis: | Based on a new type of kinematic hardening and the theory of critical state soil mechanics, a two-surface model is herein developed for predicting the undrained behavior of saturated cohesive soils under cyclic loads. The anisotropic hardening rule works in two steps: (1) introducing a new concept, memory center, to take into account the memory of particular loading history; and (2) regulating the movement of the bounding and loading surfaces according to the direction of loading paths in stress space. Conventional triaxial tests have been performed on reconstituted clay samples in the laboratory. The proposed model is verified with respect to the observed behavior of soil samples. It is shown that like a multisurface model, this model can realistically describe some important responses of clays subjected to both monotonic and cyclic loading, while incorporating the memory of particular loading events. |
