Determination of parameters for soil models

  • Published:
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering Aims and scope

Abstract

The instruments and procedure used to identify parameters of elasto-plastic soil models are cited. As an example, the parameters are identified by the method of optimization in conjunction with the method of least squares. A hyperbolic Botkin-Duncan efficiency function is employed in determining the compression modulus.
