<POROUS_CRITERION> cam_clay#

Description#

This criterion is developed to study the porous behavior of clay. In literature, many modified versions of cam-clay models have been developed recently to study the behavior of partially saturated soils. Zmat currently includes the basic Cam-Clay model.

\[\frac{3J_2}{m^2} + \left( I_1/3 + p_c \right)^2 -\sigma_\star^2\]

with \(p_c\) and \(m\) coefficients named pc and m.

Syntax#
