THE CONSISTENCY CONDITIONS FOR DENSITY LIMITS OF HYPOPLASTIC CONSTITUTIVE LAW

open access: yesTASK Quarterly, 2000
The so called phase diagram of grain skeletons illustrates the range of possible void ratios between the pressure dependent bounds ei and et. It can be shown that in the framework of the actual hypoplastic model these bounds can be surpassed by ...

EXPANSION OF A CYLINDRICAL CAVITY IN SAND

open access: yesTASK Quarterly, 2000
The paper presents numerical solution to the problem of the symmetric quasi-static large-strain expansion of a cylindrical cavity in sand. The boundary value problem is solved with the use of a constitutive equation of hypoplasticity calibrated for a ...
