Abstract
AbstractThe dilatancy behavior of overconsolidated (OC) clays is a key factor in determining their strength and deformation characteristics. Recognizing the limitations of previous dilatancy relations for OC clays, a novel dilatancy relation is proposed that can effectively capture the changes in dilatancy point, volume dilatancy and contraction with the overconsolidation ratio (OCR). As OC clays revert to the normally consolidated (NC) state, the proposed dilatancy relation smoothly transitions to that of the modified Cam‐clay (MCC) model, ensuring a unified description of the dilatancy relation between OC and NC clays. The dilatancy relation can be easily incorporated into the constitutive model of different theoretical frameworks. Subsequently, this advanced dilatancy relation is integrated into a new elastoplastic constitutive model for OC clays within the framework of bounding surface and generalized plasticity theory. The validity of the proposed model is confirmed through drained triaxial compression and extension, undrained triaxial compression and extension, as well as complex stress path tests for clays with various OCRs, and the simulation results of the proposed model are compared with those of the SANICLAY model. The comparative analysis demonstrate that the model performs well in simulating the behavior of OC clays.
