A viscoplastic SANICLAY model for natural soft soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This paper focuses on constitutive and numerical modeling of strain-rate dependency in natural clays while also accounting for anisotropy and destructuration. For this purpose the SANICLAY model that accounts for the fabric anisotropy with the additional

Variational eigenerosion for rate‐dependent plasticity in concrete modeling at small strain

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 121, Issue 7, Page 1388-1409, 15 April 2020., 2020
Summary In the context of eigenfracture scheme, the work at hand introduces a variational eigenerosion approach for inelastic materials. The theory seizes situations where the material accumulates large amounts of plastic deformations. For these cases, the surface energy entering the energy balance equation is rescaled to favor fracture, thus energy ...

Viscoplastic constitutive models for zero-thickness interface elements, formulation and applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
An energy-based work-softening visco-plastic model for zero-thickness interface elements has been developed as an extension of an existing elastic-perfectly-viscoplastic formulation.

Capturing Complex Rate‐Dependent Behaviors of Saturated Clays: A Fractional Consistency Kinematic Hardening Viscoplastic Approach

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Saturated high plasticity clays show complex nonlinear, rate‐dependent, and hysteresis behaviors under non‐monotonic stress paths, requiring advanced mathematical constitutive equations for accurate description. Taking into account the inherent advantages of kinematic hardening mechanisms in simulating complex stress histories, this paper ...

Viscoplastic Modeling the Evolving Mechanical Properties of Shotcrete 3D Printing Material

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT In recent years, additive manufacturing in construction (AMC) has gradually influenced the building industry by offering a faster and more efficient way to build with concrete. Unlike traditional methods that rely on molds, AMC deposits material layer by layer through an automated process, enabling new possibilities for custom designs and ...

A Thermodynamic Framework for Turing‐Type Instabilities in Porous Media: Part I Theory

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Pattern formation in geological materials is commonly described using analogies to Turing‐type reaction–diffusion systems, yet a unifying thermodynamic explanation remains elusive. Here we develop a multiscale, thermodynamically consistent framework for pattern‐forming instabilities in porous media undergoing coupled thermo–hydro–mechanical ...

Anisotropic creep model for soft soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In this paper a new anisotropic model for time-dependent behaviour of soft soils is presented. The formulation is based on a previously developed isotropic creep model, assuming rotated Modified Cam Clay ellipses as contours of volumetric creep strain ...

A Reaction‐Cross‐Diffusion Formulation for the Evolution of Compaction Bands

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract We present a new thermodynamically consistent model for the time‐dependent evolution of compaction bands in porous rocks. The model extends a closed‐form analytical solution of compaction band formation for porous media into the time domain.
