1. Introduction
2. Experimental evidences
• Let’s first analyse a simple example of the behaviour of Hypoplasticity in 1D for shear:
• Case 1: If ,
• Case 2: If and (loading),
• Case 3: If and (unloading),

Cyclic loading
• A wide range of geotechnical problems deals with cyclic loading. Therefore, accurate models and understanding of
how the soil behaves under cyclic loading is necessary.
• The experimental evidence suggest that the behaviour under cyclic loading is complex. Under this conditions, non-
linearity, small strain stiffness, cyclic hysteresis and recent stress history play a significant role.
• Two new “implicit” models (improved versions) for cyclic loading were recently proposed at Charles University: a) ISI
(2020) and b) AHP+ISA (2020). These models show an accurate performance under cyclic loading with
• Simulation results suggest that the hypoplastic model for sands by Von Wolffersdorff (1997) have some serious
issues to predict soil liquefaction (the state is not reached) and needs to be improved.
MONOPILE:
• Well reproduced increase of the magnitudes of the cumulative peak and residual displacements of the monopile with
the number of cycles and strongly reduced after each episode of reconsolidation. Increase of unloading stiffness
after reconsolidation was not reproduced.
• An overestimation of the excess pore water pressure was reproduced by the model during the first loading stage.
TRIPOD:
• Uneven progressive damage in soil fabrics leads to a significant change in stress state around both buckets.
• When the cumulative settlement of the pulled bucket overcome those for the pushed one, the whole foundation
change direction of rotation to clockwise producing ”self-healing” effect.
