On the determination of a set of material constants for a high-cycle accumulation model for non-cohesive soils. (English) Zbl 1273.74315
Summary: The paper discusses the determination of a set of constants for the high-cycle accumulation model (HCA) proposed by the authors. The HCA model predicts permanent strains or excess pore water pressures in non-cohesive soils due to a cyclic loading with a large number of cycles and with small to intermediate strain amplitudes. The laboratory tests necessary for the determination of the material constants and their analysis are explained in detail in this paper.
