v7.31.126 WTNV126 — Response to mixed saturation-consolidation paths with the Barcelona model

Summary:

This test validates the integration of the Barcelona model [r7.01.17]. The present test carried out in modeling A, in hydro-mechanical coupling (modeling HHM), includes three loading paths:

• A saturation path.

• An isotropic compression path.

• A desaturation path.

The modeling is carried out on a hexahedral 3D element.
