swrano18 ADINAS 0/8 3t [HS Ast oA Beeshablemax / $2H:2008-03-17 17.01.22 / E8158 Psoitgit Soil Mechanics with ADINA ADINA is used widely in many fields of applications, including the field of geomechanies. Currently, ADINA offers the following geotechnical material ‘models: Drucker-Prager, Mohr-Coulomb, Cam-clay, and a curve description ‘model. These models can be combined with the following ADINA features ‘© two- and three-dimensional solid elements; «birth and death of elements (useful for tunnel-type studies) «+ initial stresses and strains; gravity loading: tps ablomax.co kr Pacton a yoard_document_printuswravzo18 ADINAE O18 AGB HF SHA ‘small and large deformations; and ‘associated or non-associated flow rules. To illustrate the use of ADINA in the field of geomechanics, we present the solutions of two common soll mechanics problems using the Mohr-Coulomb ‘material model. The fist problem is the classical stip footing problem on a soil foundation, in which a uniformly distributed pressure is applied to model the effect of the footing (see Fig. 1 below) Figure 1. Schematic of first problem ue to vertical symmetry, only half of the domain is considered, The finite element mesh consists of 9-node two-dimensional solid elements deforming in plane strain. Fig, 2 below shows the load-displacement curves obtained for the associated and non-associated analyses, with two runs presented for each case. ‘The movie above shows the evolution of the effective stress in the foundation for the non-associated analysis >z-o> Figure 2. Results of first problem: load-displacement curves ‘The second problem considers a tunnel in which the intial support of the tunnel roof is gradually removed (see Fig. 3 below). The objective is to establish the dlisplacement of the tunnel roof as the support is being removed. The support is modeled as 2 radial pressure. hitpilimww ablemax.ca.keaction=kboard_document_prnt&uld=808 26swrano18 ADINAG O18 St AIehB 2 oh, I on 21800 Pa y= 21600 fogs 7 Figure 3.
