General Information
This nDMaterial object provides the bounding surface plasticity model of Borja et al. (2001) in which the bounding surface model is represented using modified Cam-Clay theory (Schofield and Wroth 1968). In addition to the standard capabilities of the Cam-Clay family of models (e.g., pressure dependence, hardening with plastic volumetric contraction, softening with plastic dilation, and coupled deviatoric and volumetric plastic deformation), the Borja et al. (2001) model has been enhanced to include an anisotropic bounding surface formulation that allows for consideration of hysteretic behaviour under cyclic loading. This bounding surface Cam-Clay model is coupled with a nonlinear hyperelastic model that considered pressure-dependency in the bulk and shear modulus. The full theory of this model is discussed in great detail in Borja et al. (2001).
Notes
- The ellipsoidal axis ratio parameter $C is defined such that the ellipsoidal surfaces are C times as wide in the deviatoric direction as they are along the hydrostatic axis. When $C = 1, the surfaces are spherical.
- The overconsolidation ratio (input parameter $OCR) defines the relationship between the loading surface and bounding surface. The radius of the bounding surface, R, is equal to the product of the OCR and the radius of the loading surface, r. When the soil is normally consolidated and $OCR = 1, the bounding and loading surfaces are coincident and virgin loading will occur.
- When the hyperelastic pressure-dependency parameter (input parameter $alpha) is set to zero, the elastic shear modulus will be constant with a value equal to the initial shear modulus (input parameter $mu_o) and the deviatoric and volumetric responses are uncoupled in the elastic regime.
- The virgin compressibility parameter (input parameter $lambda) describes the relationship between the specific volume v = 1 + e and the logarithm of the mean effective stress (where e is the void ratio). This is is related to the compression index C_c that describes the relationship between the void ratio and the logarithm of the mean effective stress in consolidation testing.
Usage Examples
The following usage example provides the input parameters used in the single element examples of Borja et al. (2001). The initial bulk modulus is determined from the initial mean stress desired in the test (in this case p = 100 kPa) divided by the recompressibilty index kappa = 0.018. The units of this analysis are kN and m, thus the prescribed initial shear modulus of 5.4 MPa is input as 5400 kPa. The hardening parameter $h has the same units as the moduli.
