SSNV184 - Triaxial compression test with the model of Hoek-
Brown modified



Summary

This test makes it possible to validate the elastoplastic law of behavior of Hoek-Brown modified in mechanics of
rocks. It is about a triaxial compression test for which calculations are carried out in pure mechanics. Three levels of
containment are applied: 5 MPa, 12 MPa and 25 MPa. For reasons of symmetry, one is interested only in
eighth of a sample subjected to a triaxial compression test.
It is about a test of not-regression.

The test breaks up into two phases:
1) Initially, one brings the sample in a homogeneous state

that, the corresponding confining pressure is imposed on the front faces (

2) Once the homogeneous state obtained, displacements are maintained locked on the faces
