SSNV154 - Triaxial compression test drained with model CJS
(level 3)



Summary

This test makes it possible to validate level 3 of model CJS. It is about a triaxial compression test in drained condition.
calculations are carried out only on the solid part of the ground without hydraulic coupling. The level of
containment is 400 KPa.
By reason of symmetry, one is interested only in the eighth of a sample subjected to a triaxial compression test. Two
modelings are presented. Modeling A is axisymmetric. In modeling B, 3D, the sample
tested is turned of an angle of -
/6 compared to axis X. Consequently, directions X, y, Z are not any more
main directions. That makes it possible to validate the operations of numerical integration of the model which act on
nondiagonal terms of the tensors of the strains and the stresses.
It is about a test of nonregression. Nevertheless, results obtained with Code_Aster for model CJS3
are compared with those obtained with a private version of software FLAC - 2D.
