Abstract
AbstractA systematic calibration procedure for the constitutive model gUTS using conventional triaxial data for all but one of the material constants is described. Typical ranges for the constants for clay and sand are specified together with default values. When all default values are adopted, just eight material constants need to be determined (gUTS‐lite). A comprehensive series of 49 simulations on clays, silt and sands in loose and dense states under a wide range of monotonic and cyclic stress paths, initial states and drainage conditions provide very satisfactory agreement with experimental results.
