The stress-strain relationship of frozen soil is a hot research topic in the field of frozen soil mechanics. In order to study the effect of particle crushing on the stress-strain relationship, a series of triaxial compression tests for frozen sandy soil are performed under confining pressures from 1 to 8 MPa at the temperatures of −3 and −5°C, and the energy consumption caused by particle breakage is analyzed during the triaxial shear process based on the energy principle. It is found that the energy consumption caused by the particle breakage presents a hyperbolic trend with axial strain. In view of the obvious advantages of the double yield surface elastoplastic model in describing soil dilatancy, stress path effect, and stress history influence, a modified double yield surface elastoplastic model for frozen sandy soil is proposed based on the energy principle. The validity of the model is verified by comparing its modeling results with test results. As a result, it is found that the stress-strain curves predicted by this model agree well with the corresponding experimental results under different confining pressures and temperatures.

Frost heave must be considered in cases where pipelines are laid in permafrost in order to protect the pipelines from overstress and to maintain the safe operation. In this paper, a finite element model for stress/strain analysis in a pipeline subjected to differential frost heave was presented, in which the amount of frost heave is calculated using a segregation potential model and considering creep effects of the frozen soil. In addition, a computational method for the temperature field around a pipeline was proposed so that the frozen depth and temperature variation gradient could be obtained. Using the procedure proposed in this paper, stress/strain can be calculated according to the temperature on the surface of soil and in a pipeline. The result shows the characteristics of deformation and loading of a pipeline subjected to differential frost heave. In general, the methods and results in this paper can provide a reference for the design, construction and operation of pipelines in permafrost areas.

Abstract: The stress and deformation of rock-fill dam with asphalt concrete core wall founded on deep overburden is calculated and analyzed by Duncan E-ν model and double-yield-surface model through three-dimensional finite element method. The stress and deformation of dams in water storage period is compared by the two models, the results show that the deformation distribution of dam core via two different models are coincide one another. The horizontal displacement and vertical displacement of rock-fill dam with asphalt concrete core wall by double-yield-surface model is smaller than which by Duncan E-ν model in the period of water storage. Furthermore, the horizontal displacement and vertical displacement by double-yield-surface model, which are close to the practical test data through the deformation via two models are in good agreement. The analysis of core-wall stress via double-yield-surface model is more reasonable than the Duncan E-ν model. The analysis result of resisting hydraulic fracturing of core dams by DuncanE-ν model is coincide which of core dams by double-yield-surface model.

Abstract We present a constitutive model for particle-binder composites that accounts for finite-deformation kinematics, nonlinear elasto-plasticity without apparent yield, cyclic hysteresis, and progressive stress-softening before the attainment of stable cyclic response. The model is based on deformation mechanisms experimentally observed during quasi-static monotonic and cyclic compression of mock Plastic-Bonded Explosives (PBX) at large strain. An additive decomposition of strain energy into elastic and inelastic parts is assumed, where the elastic response is modeled using Ogden hyperelasticity while the inelastic response is described using yield-surface-free endochronic plasticity based on the concepts of internal variables and of evolution or rate equations. Stress-softening is modeled using two approaches; a discontinuous isotropic damage model to appropriately describe the softening in the overall loading-unloading response, and a material scale function to describe the progressive cyclic softening until cyclic stabilization. A nonlinear multivariate optimization procedure is developed to estimate the elasto-plastic model parameters from nominal stress-strain experimental compression data. Finally, a correlation between model parameters and the unique stress-strain response of mock PBX specimens with differing concentrations of aluminum is identified, thus establishing a relationship between model parameters and material composition.

Soil settlement is normally quantified using conventional soil volume change models which are solely based on the effective stress and the role of shear strength is ignored due to the difficulties to incorporate in the framework. The Rotational Multiple Yield Surface Framework (RMYSF) is a soil volume change model developed from the standpoint of the interaction between the effective stress and shear strength. RMYSF incorporates the development of mobilised shear strength within the body of the soil whenever the soil is subjected to anisotropic compression. Currently the framework has been applied to predict the soil anisotropic stress-strain behaviour at any effective stress. This paper present the enhancement of this volume change framework using normalisation of axial strain with the understanding that the failure axial strain is not unique, but increases as the effective stress increases. This technique has essentially produced a better accuracy in the prediction of the stress-strain response for Malaysian residual soils. A series of drained tri-axial tests under various effective stresses has been conducted using specimens of 50mm diameter and 100mm height and from the stress-strain curves the inherent mobilised shear strength envelopes at various axial strains have been determined. These mobilised shear strength envelopes were then applied for the prediction of the soil stress-strain response. An excellent agreement between the predicted and the actual stress-strain curves has been achieved.
