Revisiting the thermodynamics of hardening plasticity for unsaturated soils [PDF]
, 2010 A thermodynamically consistent extension of the constitutive equations of saturated soils to unsaturated conditions is often worked out through the use a unique 'effective' interstitial pressure, accounting equivalently for the pressures of the ...

The importance of accurate time-integration in the numerical modelling of P-wave propagation [PDF]
, 2017 The numerical dissipation characteristics of the Newmark and generalised-α time-integration schemes are investigated for P-wave propagation in a fully saturated level-ground sand deposit, where higher frequencies than those for S-waves are of concern ...

Numerical evaluation of the pipe-pile buckling during vibratory driving in sand [PDF]
, 2019 The buckling of steel pipe piles during vibratory driving is numerically studied using the Multi-Material Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (MMALE) method. This method handles the large soil deformations that occur during pile driving and other geotechnical ...
