Course overview
The course aims to develop advanced skills in constitutive modelling in geotechnical engineering, from critical state soil mechanics to liquefaction assessment, offering insights into predictive soil behaviour.
Course learning outcomes
- Develop an understanding on stress paths and boundary conditions on soil behaviour
- Evaluate state dependency on soil behaviour
- Develop critical state soil mechanics framework and prediction of soil behaviour
- Elements of constitutive laws and formulate a bounding surface constitutive model
- Apply a constitutive model for the prediction of state and cyclic liquefaction behaviour
