Theory

\[p = \frac{1}{3} \mathrm{tr}(\mathbf{\sigma})\]
\[\mathbf{s} = \mathrm{dev} (\mathbf{\sigma}) = \mathbf{\sigma} - \frac{1}{3} p \mathbf{1}\]

Elasticity Elastic moduli are considered to be functions of p and current void ratio:

\[G = G_0 p_{atm}\frac{\left(2.97-e\right)^2}{1+e}\left(\frac{p}{p_{atm}}\right)^{1/2}\]
\[K = \frac{2(1+\nu)}{3(1-2\nu)} G\]

The elastic stress-strain relationship is:

\[d\mathbf{e}^\mathrm{e} = \frac{d\mathbf{s}}{2G}\]
\[d\varepsilon^\mathrm{e}_v = \frac{dp}{K}\]

Critical State Line A power relationship is assumed for the critical state line:

\[e_c = e_0 - \lambda_c\left(\frac{p_c}{p_{atm}}\right)^\xi\]

where \(e_0\) is the void ratio at \(p_c = 0\) and \(\lambda_c\) and \(\xi\) constants.

Yield Surface Yield surface is a stress-ratio dependent surface in this model and is defined as

\[\left\| \mathbf{s} - p \mathbf{\alpha} \right\| - \sqrt\frac{2}{3}pm = 0\]

with \(\mathbf{\alpha}\) being the deviatoric back stress-ratio.

Plastic Strain Increment The increment of the plastic strain tensor is given by

\[d\mathbf{\varepsilon}^p = \langle L \rangle \mathbf{R}\]

where

\[\mathbf{R} = \mathbf{R'} + \frac{1}{3} D \mathbf{1}\]

therefore

\(d\mathbf{e}^p = \langle L \rangle \mathbf{R'}\) and \(d\varepsilon^p_v = \langle L \rangle D\) The hardening modulus in this model is defined as

\[K_p = \frac{2}{3} p h (\mathbf{\alpha}^b_{\theta} - \mathbf{\alpha}): \mathbf{n}\]

where \(\mathbf{n}\) is the deviatoric part of the gradient to yield surface.

\(\mathbf{\alpha}^b_{\theta} = \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}} \left[g(\theta,c) M_c exp(-n^b\Psi) - m\right] \mathbf{n} `, :math:\)Psi` being the state parameter.

the hardening parameter \(h\) is defined as

\[h = \frac{b_0}{(\mathbf{\alpha}-\mathbf{\alpha_{in}}):\mathbf{n}}\]

\(\mathbf{\alpha_{in}}\) is the value of \(\mathbf{\alpha}\) at initiation of loading cycle.

\[b_0 = G_0 h_0 (1-c_h e) \left(\frac{p}{p_{atm}}\right)^{-1/2}\]

Also the dilation parameters are defined as

\[D = A_d (\mathbf{\alpha}^d_{\theta}-\mathbf{\alpha}) : \mathbf{n}\]
\[\mathbf{\alpha}^d_{\theta} = \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}} \left[g(\theta,c) M_c exp(n^d\Psi) - m\right] \mathbf{n}\]
\[A_d = A_0 (1+\langle \mathbf{z : n}\rangle)\]

where \(\mathbf{z}\) is the fabric tensor.

The evolution of fabric and the back stress-ratio tensors are defined as

\[d\mathbf{z} = - c_z \langle -d\varepsilon^p_v \rangle (z_{max}\mathbf{n}+\mathbf{z})`\]
\[d\mathbf{\alpha} = \langle L \rangle (2/3) h (\mathbf{\alpha}^b_{\theta} - \mathbf{\alpha})\]
