Yield functions suitable for granular materials
The behaviour of granular materials is complex. Unlike all other engineering materials their volume change does not only depend upon an applied mean stress, but also on the change in shape of the body. This complexity in the behaviour makes it difficult to develop useful constitutive equations which...
