Strain Model

Soils have nonlinear stiffness and develops irrecoverable strains even at very small strain levels. Accurate modeling of stress-strain behaviour at various strain levels is very important for predicting the deformation of soils. Some existing stress-strain models are reviewed and evaluated firstly. And then a new simple non-linear stress-strain model is proposed. Four undetermined parameters involved in the proposed model can be obtained through maximum Young’s module, deformation module, and limit deviator stress and linearity index of soils that can be measured from experiment directly or calculated by empirical formulas indirectly. The effectiveness of the proposed stress-strain model is examined by predicting stress-strain curves measured in plane-strain compression test on Toyota sand and undrained triaxial compression test on London clay. The fitting results of the proposed model are in good agreement with experimental data, which verify the effectiveness of the model.

Permeability test for complete stress-strain process of coarse sandstone were carried out in triaxial test instrument. On the basis of test results, the influence of confining pressure and strain on the hydraulic conductivity was discussed. It is shown that in the complete stress-strain process, hydraulic conductivity changes in the law that presents the same character with the curve of stress-strain. The hydraulic conductivity reduces slightly with the increase of deviatoric stress in the stage of micro fracture compressing and elastic; In the elastoplastic stage, along with the expansion of new fractures, the hydraulic conductivity increases slowly at first and then reaches sharply to the maximum value after peak point; In the post-peak stage, the fracture which controls the hydraulic conductivity of coarse sandstone is compressed because of the confining pressure and the hydraulic conductivity decreases. During the process of deformation and failure, the hydraulic conductivity is more sensitive to the change of circumferential strain. With the increase of confining pressure, the increased value from initial to peak value and the decreased value from peak to residual value decreases.
