Dear Balaji,

What kind of numerical scheme do you use : explicit or implicit ?

This is typically what we get with an explicit scheme.

During this last hardeing phase (p and q kept on increasing), what kind of volumetric strain rate do you obtain ?

Dear Bonelli,

Thank you for your reply. I got the results and going well.

Hi,

First, you need to have the slopes of normal compression and unloading-reloading lines in e-lnp’, the slope of critical state line in q-p plane, and Poisson’s ratio. Then, use the explicit form of constitutive equation for MCC model in which stress rate components are given in terms of strain rate components and predict soil behavior!

Hi, Balaji

Can I share your MatLab code for the modified cam-clay model? Thanks.
