Descriptions
The Cam-clay model or its modified model proposed by Roscoe et al. can be used to predict the elasto-plastic behaviors of normally consolidated clays under triaxial stresses. In the previous paper the author showed that there exists several similarities between stress strain response of normally consolidated clays and that of sand at high pressures, and that the elasto-plastic behaviors of sand at high pressures can be predicted, as a first approximation, by using the Roscoe's model. This study deals with the stress strain relation of rockfill materials at elevated cell pressures, and describes that the Roscoe's model is also applicable to predict the stress strain behaviors of the rockfill materals.
