This chapter describes the numerical simulations carried out at the University of Napoli Federico II in the framework of the LEAP-ASIA-2019 Simulation Exercise. An advanced critical state compatible, bounding surface plasticity model for sand has been adopted and calibrated on the available cyclic laboratory test data. The calibration has been finalized to catch the cyclic strength of the investigated sand. Centrifuge test simulations have been performed by means of the finite element code PLAXIS, which is a commercial code well widespread in the community of geotechnical practitioners. Type-C simulations highlighted the capability of the numerical model to reasonably predict the time histories of acceleration and excess pore water pressure measured during the experimental tests.

Abstract
This chapter describes the numerical simulations carried out at the University of Napoli Federico II in the framework of the LEAP-ASIA-2019 Simulation Exercise. An advanced critical state compatible, bounding surface plasticity model for sand has been adopted and calibrated on the available cyclic laboratory test data. The calibration has been finalized to catch the cyclic strength of the investigated sand. Centrifuge test simulations have been performed by means of the finite element code PLAXIS, which is a commercial code well widespread in the community of geotechnical practitioners. Type-C simulations highlighted the capability of the numerical model to reasonably predict the time histories of acceleration and excess pore water pressure measured during the experimental tests.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
