Please read my explaination and give me your physical opinion
I have total load applied on a mixture porous medium (Soil solid matrix and water), which is partially drained. Initially, when the dW/dt>0, the total load is being carried by both the solid matrix and water. However, most of that...
I am running ElastoPlastic analysis. With application of the load, the external work of the whole model at a specific time reaches a peack and starts to become a decreasing function of time, although the load is increasing. After that the external work becomes a decreasing function of time.
I...
not really ... but what is observed is interesting
decreasing the external work while the applied load is increasing could means that the applied load on the porous medium is not producing work any more...
can you physically interpret that..?
does that flag failure..?

thanks Martin
FLAC can handle 3D.. please review your info
Both can handle the features of my model but (Large Defo, Elastoplastic and others) But I am saying which is better when the size of the problem becomes very large
What is the maximum number of DOFs that can be handled by ABAQUS ? Is there any minimum machine memory requirement related to this number? Are there any computational ramifications (other than long computational time) that can be expected from using huge number of elements? As far as this point...
I am using ABAQUS standard (Implicit) to model elastoplastic materials. However, because I have materials failure (plasticity cannot converge at some points) the model cannot converge. What should I do in this case
VAd and theCorkster : thanks for your valuable refernces
By the way I just put 90% as an example numbetr. My actual required RD that is reportedly acceptable for precluding liquefaction of the materials I have is 65 %.
Which should be our failure criterion
(Sigma1- Sigma3)max or
(Sigma1/Sigma3)max
they do not coincide when having undrained case
Please refeer me to specialized paperes or texts if you can

"if the panel is thick there will be 2D strain (at the mid-plane of the plate)"
why 2D strain only... if;e.g, you subject a cube to the stresses SigmaX and SigmaY and left the faces normal to Z axis free of Stresses (this is biaxial loading/BC case.. is not it?)...

I cannot do lab tests. I am a PhD researcher performing analytical and numerical works.
I want to estimate e(min) and e(max) from specific gravity and grain size distribution of the sands.

However it is not easy to get...
