SSNV160 - Hydrostatic test with the law
CAM_CLAY




Summary:


This test makes it possible to validate the mechanical law elastoplastic Cam_Clay specific to the grounds normally
consolidated the elastic part is non-linear and the plastic part is hardening or lenitive. It
test is a hydrostatic test of compression. These results are compared with an analytical solution for
two modelings 3D and axisymmetric. Modelings has and B which called upon linear search
are reabsorbed, this is why only modelings C and D are written.

1.4 Conditions
initial
In
CAM_CLAY
, the elastic law requires a hydrostatic stress in an initial state (the deformation being
null).
To initialize this stress, one chose to carry out at the beginning a purely elastic calculation in
making evolve/move pressure of 0. with 1.E5 AP. One extracts from this calculation only the field of
stresses at the points of gauss. This stress field resulting from the elastic design is considered
like the initial state of the hydrostatic stress necessary to the law Cam_Clay of following calculation.
