Experimental and numerical analyses of failure in very loose sands
It is now recognized that some collapses can occur before the Mohr-Coulomb plastic limit criterion is reached, and our recent results highlight that these collapses occur under a diffuse mode of failure. We present and discuss experimental data on constant shear drained tests. A non-associated elastoplastic multimechanism model is briefly presented and numerical results are compared with our data obtained constant shear drained tests. These simulations are in agreement with experiments. The second order work is computed and the loss of stability, corresponding to the vanishing of the second order work, is very close to the experimental collapse point.
