What is Constitutive Modeling of Geomaterials from Non-uniform Material Tests about?
As the name implies, a non-uniform material test has a non uniform distribution of stresses and strains within the specimen. An example is a triaxial test with end friction. Unlike the conventional material tests, points in the specimen in a non-uniform material test are subjected to widely varying stress paths. In this paper a method to extract the material constitutive behavior from a non-uniform material test is presented. This method employs the use of a neural network material model in a ®nite element analysis. The measured boundary forces and displacements are applied in the ®nite element analysis to generate the input and output vectors for training the neural network material model. This method has been applied to a series of triaxial compression tests with end friction on sand.
