INTERNATIONAL COURSE ON COMPUTATIONAL GEOTECHNICS Civil Engineering Department, Itenas 21-23 September 2010, Bandung, Indonesia Lecture 3 Non-linear Computation Prof. Paulus Rahardjo razm (Graz University of TechnologyLy Failyresiof Embani ; coo ARITY IN SOIL BEHAVIOR. Fes] LINEAR C. ALCULATION Z ee —Liner Elastic vs Non-linear Behavior Load p / Linear elastic Settiementof Node A. Staged Construction and Load Multiplier Active load = unbalance due to differences im loads & weights compared to previous phase Active load (unbalance) is applied in steps; hhave no physical meani Final step (ZMstage=1) = defined situation (unbalance fully solved) Stiffnesses are applied at the beginning of phase Unbalance is applied gradually during phase (Change of stiffness without change of load has no effect (no driving force!)
