Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering Aims and scope

Using the elastoplastic Coulomb-Mohr model, an oedometer test of soil with the identical regularly spaced large inclusions is simulated using the finite element method in a flat formulation. The content of inclusions from 10 to 80% is considered. It has been established that with an increase in the percentage of inclusions, the deformation modulus increases and Poisson’s ratio decreases, while the nature of the inclusions distribution is of significant importance.
