The model parameters are treated as quadratic polynomial functions with respect to stress and temperature. A series of uniaxial compressive creep experiments are performed at various stress and temperature conditions in order to determine these parameter functions, and then the proposed model is validated by comparison between the predictions and experiments at the other loading conditions. It is shown that very small permanent deformation at low stress and temperature increases rapidly with elevated stress or temperature and the damage may initiate in the stationary stage but mainly develops in the accelerated stage. Compared with the visco-elastoplastic models without damage, the predictions from the proposed model is in better agreement with the experiments, and can better capture the rate-dependency in creep responses of asphalt mastic especially below its softening point of 47 ℃展开更多

Strain-rate-change tests from 5×10-5 s-1 to 2x10-2 s-1 were applied to study deformation mechanisms. The experimental data show that the material exhibits enhanced tensile ductilities of over 100% at 400 and 450 ℃ with stress exponent of 4.29 and activation energy of 149.60 kJ/mol, and initial fine grains preserve in evenly deformed gauge based on microstructure studies. The enhanced tensile ductilities are rate controlled by a competitive mechanism of grain boundary sliding and dislocation climb creep, based on which a model can successfully simulate the deformation behavior.展开更多

Based on all selected and conducted experimental results, a modified creep index Cae* defined in double logarithmic plane lge-lgt, was plotted for various clays, from which Cae* can be assumed as a constant for different soil densities. Then, the modified creep index was applied to a newly developed elastic viscoplastic model. In this way, the modified creep index Ca* can naturally take into account the nonlinear Cae revealing the influence of soil density in the soil assemblies without additional parameters. Finally, the enhanced model was incorporated into the finite element code ABAQUS and used to simulate a consolidation test and a test embankment. The improvement of simulations by the modified creep index was highlighted by comparing simulations using the conventional creep index Cae.展开更多

文摘Conventional consolidation tests on reconstituted specimens of numerous natural soft clays show a decreasing of creep index Cae with increasing soil density. Based on all selected and conducted experimental results, a modified creep index Cae* defined in double logarithmic plane lge-lgt, was plotted for various clays, from which Cae* can be assumed as a constant for different soil densities. Then, the modified creep index was applied to a newly developed elastic viscoplastic model. In this way, the modified creep index Ca* can naturally take into account the nonlinear Cae revealing the influence of soil density in the soil assemblies without additional parameters. Finally, the enhanced model was incorporated into the finite element code ABAQUS and used to simulate a consolidation test and a test embankment. The improvement of simulations by the modified creep index was highlighted by comparing simulations using the conventional creep index Cae.
