In addition to the soil behavior, its condition of failure has been widely represented by the Mohr-Coulomb model or elastic-plastic theory. However, is well know the soil does not behave as linear elastic or perfectly plastic during the entire load range and its behavior is more complex and subject to diverse conditions.<\/p>\n<p>A large variety of constitutive models have been proposed by diverse researches during the recent decades to describe the behavior of soils. All these models present advantages and limitations that also largely depending on its applications. No model can completely describe the real soil behavior under all conditions. In addition, the complexity of the soil model is proportional to the number of parameters required to use it. For geotechnical engineering applications soil data is usually limited to results obtained from basic field and laboratory tests and there is often limited data that can be used for the selection. However, the practice is leading to the use of the more sophisticated methods and geotechnical engineers should be prepared to properly select soil models and engineering parameters to be used in combination with the use of available software for geotechnical applications.<\/p>\n<p>This course will introduce you to methods commonly used in the geotechnical engineering practice for modeling soil behavior and provide you with the key concepts to select material parameters and properly apply principles of numerical modeling methods (e.g., finite element method, finite differences method).<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"left\">Objectives<\/h3>\n<p>By the end of the course you will be able to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Understand principles and applications of methods available for modelling soil behavior<\/li>\n<li>Recognize advantages and limitations of the different constitutive models<\/li>\n<li>Understand how to select appropriate model parameters from available field and laboratory data<\/li>\n<li>Understand how to apply a constitutive model using numerical methods (Finite Element Method, Finite Differences Method) available for engineering computer software (e.g., Plaxis, FLAC) to analyze a variety of geotechnical problems<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"left\"><strong>Limited places.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Introduction Modelling of soil behavior in geotechnical problems have been generally solved by the principles of linear elasticity (Hooke\u2019s Law) or perfect plasticity (Coulomb\u2019s Law) due to the simplicity of its applications.
