CONSTITUTIVE LAWS INCLUDING KINEMATIC HARDENING FOR CLAY WITH PORE WATER PRESSURE AND FOR SAND. PROCEEDINGS OF THE SIXTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON NUMERICAL METHODS IN GEOMECHANICS, 11-15 APRIL 1988, INNSBRUCK, AUSTRIA. VOLUMES 1 - 3

Two constitutive laws for elasto-plastic finite element analyses are proposed for sand and for clay. Covering kinematic as well as isotropic hardening, they are valid for general three dimensional stress paths including slow cyclic loading. The flow rules are non-associated allowing a better description of volumetric deformations. Special attention is given to the undrained behaviour of cohesive soils. In order to predict transient pore water pressures during loading and consolidation, a numerical solution of the coupled stress-strain flow problem by means of an incremental finite element formulation is presented.
