Stress definitions
In general, soil cannot sustain tension, only compression PLAXIS adopts the general mechanics definition of stress and strain: Tension/extension is positive; Pressure/compression is negative

In general, soil deformation is based on stress changes in the grain skeleton (effective stresses) According to Terzaghis principle: = - pw

Plasticity
Basic principle of elasto-plasticity:
e ij = ij + ijp e d ij = d ij + d ijp
Elastic strains: Hookes law Plastic strains: 3 questions 1. Does plasticity occur? 2. If so, in what direction? 3. How much plasticity?

Plasticity
Basic principle of elasto-plasticity:
e ij = ij + ijp e d ij = d ij + d ijp
d ijp = d
g 'ij
d = scalar; magnitude of plastic strains dg/d = vector; direction of plastic strains g = plastic potential function

The LEPP model with Mohr-Coulomb failure contour is in PLAXIS called the Mohr-Coulomb model For this model: Plasticity = Failure This does NOT apply to all models!!!

Mohr-Coulomb model
Model parameters must be determined such that real soil behaviour is approximated in the best possible way
Parameter determination
Parameter determination from: Laboratory tests (triaxial test (CD, CU), oedometer test or CRS, simple shear test, ) Field tests (SPT, CPT, pressure meter (Menard, CPM, SBP), dilatometer, ) Correlations with qc , PI , RD and other index parameters Rules-of-thumb, norms, charts, tables Engineering judgement
