v7.31.132 WTNV132 - Construction of a soil column with Hujeux’s law

Summary

We want to model numerically the successive installation of the layers of a one-dimensional soil column, taking into account both the hydromechanical coupling and the plastification of the soil due to its non-linear behavior (by Hujeux’s law [R7.01.23]). The calculated solutions are compared to results from the finite element code GEFDYN from École Centrale Paris.
