5. Results of a triaxial test#

The aim is to simulate a triaxial test (see the ssnv211 test case) by imposing \(5\mathit{MPa}\) as a confinement constraint. A uniaxial deformation is imposed under compression and which evolves over time.

The load speed is set to \({10}^{\mathrm{-}5}m\mathrm{/}s\). The stress deflector and the volume deformation as a function of the imposed axial deformation are shown opposite.
