Effect of using different approximation models to the exact Mohr–Coulomb material model in the FE simulation of Anchor Foundations in sand
Abstract Singularities in the Mohr–Coulomb (MC) yield criterion create numerical difficulties when implemented in the finite element model (FEM). In this research, a two-dimensional (2D) and a three-dimensional (3D) elasto-plastic FEM coupled with isotropic strain hardening–softening or simple strai...
