[HTML][HTML] Capturing the transition from diffuse to localised failure in constitutive modelling of partially saturated soils

DG Phan, GD Nguyen, HH Bui, T Bennett - International Journal of …, 2023 - Elsevier
Localised failures in the form of shear band induce localised deformation and saturation
within partially saturated soils. Inelastic responses mainly take place inside the shear band …

[HTML][HTML] Controlling behaviour of constitutive models for rocks using energy dissipations

NT Nguyen, GD Nguyen, M Karakus, HH Bui… - International Journal of …, 2025 - Elsevier
The behaviour of rocks and other similar geomaterials is governed by different underling
dissipative mechanisms that can be represented by damage and plastic strains in continuum …

[HTML][HTML] A rock damage model considering shear failure by modified logistic growth theory

K Chen, R Cudmani, A Peña - Journal of Rock Mechanics and …, 2024 - Elsevier
Localized rock failures, like cracks or shear bands, demand specific attention in modeling for
solids and structures. This is due to the uncertainty of conventional continuum-based …
