An elasto-viscoplastic model is briefly introduced based on the rate-dependency of preconsolidation pressure. By comparing the rate-dependency formulation with the creep based formulation, the relationship between rate-dependency and creep behaviors is firstly described. The rate-dependency based formulation is then extended to derive an analytical solution for the stress relaxation behavior with defining a stress relaxation coefficient. Based on this, the relationship between the rate-dependency coefficient and the stress relaxation coefficient is derived. Therefore, the uniqueness between behaviors of rate-dependency, creep and stress relaxation with their key parameters is obtained. The uniqueness is finally validated by comparing the simulated rate-dependency of preconsolidation pressure, the estimated values of secondary compression coefficient and simulations of stress relaxation tests with test results on both reconstituted Illite and Berthierville clay.展开更多

The effects of artificial viscosity on shock capturing ability, broadband accuracy and under-resolved instability are examined combined with various orders and mesh resolutions. For shock-dominated flows, the superior accuracy of high order methods in terms of discontinuity resolution are well retained compared with lower ones. For under-resolved simulations, the artificial viscosity model is able to enhance stability of the eighth order discontinuous Galerkin method despite of detrimental influence for accuracy. For multi-scale flows, the artificial viscosity model demonstrates biased numerical dissipation towards higher wavenumbers. Capability in terms of boundary layer flows and hybrid meshes is also demonstrated.It is concluded that the fourth order artificial viscosity discontinuous Galerkin method is comparable to typical high order finite difference methods in the literature in terms of accuracy for identical number of degrees of freedom, while the eighth order is significantly better unless the under-resolved instability issue is raised. Furthermore, the artificial viscosity discontinuous Galerkin method is shown to provide appropriate numerical dissipation as compensation for turbulent kinetic energy decaying on moderately coarse meshes, indicating good potentiality for implicit large eddy simulation.展开更多
