I am designing a triaxial campaing in order to calibrate a a CDP model (Barcelona model 1989 modified by Fenves and Lee 1998).

I need to clarify the role of this different parameters:

  • wc and wt
  • Kc
  • fb0/fc0 (biaxial compression resistence over simple compression strenght resistence)
  • dilatation angle ψ and the eccentricity ε of Drucker-Prager  hyperbolic potential function

In particular is non that clare to me what is a biaxial compression resistence or a the tensile meridian and compressive meridian ultimate resistence.

I would be gratefull if anybody could help me.
