A Methodology to Determine the Viscoplastic Perzyna Model Parameters for Granular Materials under High Strain Rates

Publication: Geo-Chicago 2016

Abstract

Although Perzyna’s theory of viscoplasticity has been accepted and used widely, there is no proper and unified method to determine this model’s parameters for granular materials such as sand under high strain rate conditions. To study these parameters, both static and dynamic tests have been conducted on Ottawa sand. The method used to determine the physical behavior of sand at high strain rates was the split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) method. Experimental stress-strain results from granular soils ranging from strain rates of 200 s-1 to 2100 s-1 are presented in this paper. The constitutive equations are calibrated against the experimental data using the Marquardt-Levenberg nonlinear optimization algorithm.
