6. Summary of results

This test makes it possible to compare the results of two behavioral models for the cyclic shear response of granular materials.

Modeling A made it possible to validate the behavior of the Hujeux model under cyclic loading in comparison with the results on the reference code of this behavior model.

Modeling B made it possible to verify that the Iwan model makes it possible to obtain results similar to the Hujeux model (with a difference of approximately 5%), but with easy calibration (2 parameters).

The C modeling illustrated the work hardening under cyclic loading of model CSSM.
