Abstract: | The paper presents a simple constitutive model for the behavior of sands during monotonic simple shear loading. The model
is developed specifically to account for the effects of principal stress rotation on the simple shear response of sands. The
main feature of the model is the incorporation of two important effects of principal stress on stress–strain response: anisotropy
and non-coaxiality. In particular, an anisotropic failure criterion, cross-anisotropic elasticity, and a plastic flow rule
and a stress–dilatancy relationship that incorporate the effects of non-coaxiality are adopted in the model. Simulations of
published experimental results from direct simple shear and hollow cylindrical torsional simple shear tests on sands show
the satisfactory performance of the model. It is envisioned that the model can be valuable in modeling in situ simple shear
response of sands and in interpreting simple shear test results. |
