the present paper is devoted to a new critical state based plasticity model able to predict drained and undrained behaviour of granular material. it incorporates a bounding surface plasticity model describing in multilaminate framework to capitalize on advantages of this mathematical framework. most of the models developed using stress/strain invariants are not capable of identifying the parame...

In this paper, we study the 3D axisymmetric Navier-Stokes Equations with swirl. We prove the global regularity of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations for a family of large anisotropic initial data. Moreover, we obtain a global bound of the solution in terms of its initial data in some Lp norm. Our results also reveal some interesting dynamic growth behavior of the solution due to the interaction bet...

The purpose of this paper is concerned with the mathematical model development issues, necessary for a better prediction of dynamic responses of articulated rotor helicopters. The methodology is laid out based on mathematical model development for an articulated rotor helicopters, using the theories of aeroelastisity, finite element and the time domain compressible unsteady aerodynamics. The he...

a few of the presented soil behavior models are capable of predicting the triggering and post liquefaction and also shear band mechanism through the soil media. the assessment of earth-dam body behavior as a soil structure made of cohesive soil in core and non-cohesive soil as the core supports, including water interaction at upstream through earthquake upon a multi-line constitutive equations ...

This paper presents a coupled finite element-boundary element approach in the time domain for the calculation of the dynamic response of structures due to dynamic excitations as arising from traffic or pile driving. The dynamic soil flexibility is calculated with a boundary element formulation in the frequency domain. It is transformed to a force-displacement relationship in the time domain and...

The macroporosity, and to a lesser extent the microporosity, of swelling and shrinking soils is affected by their shrinkage behaviour. The magnitude of the changes in bulk volume in response to changes in water content is usually described by the soil shrinkage characteristic curve (SSCC), i.e. the relation between the void ratio and the moisture ratio. At present, many techniques have been des...
