Research Topic

Rate dependent plasticity of soil and instability behavior: The objective of this study is to assess the rate effect phenomena in soil with emphasis on particle interaction and effect of pore pressure on stress-train behavior at high strain rate. Presently, work is going on development of a new rate dependant constitutive model capable to predict high strain rate effect during fast monotonic loading. Instability and stain localization phenomenon under high strain rate is another focus of this study. A general framework for predicting various types of instability under rate independent loading has been established and the analysis will be extended for rate dependent conditions to study high strain rate induced instability phenomena.
