    Notes: The well-known linear relation between the specific volume and the logarithm of the pressure for the isotropic consolidation has been widely incorporated into elastoplastic constitutive equations of soils. It is, however, indicated in this article that this relation has several physically unaccepted properties. Instead of this relation it is recommended to incorporate the linear relation between both logarithms of the volume and the pressure into constitutive equations, which does not have any of the unrealistic properties.

    Notes: A new version of a hypoplastic constitutive equation is presented which is characterized by the introduction of a stress-like internal parameter called back stress. The back stress is a function of the void ratio and of the hydrostatic stress. Using a unique set of material constants, the new constitutive equation describes many aspects of the behaviour of cohesionless soils including the influence of density and stress level. This is demonstrated by a series of verification tests. The determination of the material constants from laboratory tests is described analytically.

    Notes: A general analysis using an incremental elastic, perfectly plastic constitutive stress-strain relationship for poroelastoplastic materials is presented to simulate an opening in a low-permeability friable porous medium under non-isothermal conditions. Analytical solutions are obtained for the stresses and strains around a 2-D plane strain circular borehole. An expansion potential is introduced by combining the strains induced by temperature and pore pressure changes. Steady-state pressures and temperatures are considered, and a non-associated plastic flow rule is applied to calculate plastic strains. Focusing on stress distribution near a circular opening, the classic solutions for those stresses under dry and isothermal conditions are used to compare with the newly derived solution. The general poroelastoplastic effect and the thermal effect on sand production and borehole stability are addressed. We suggest that the knowledge of stress history is critical to achieve adequate solutions for displacement and stress in friable media such as clays, shales and oil sands.

    Notes: A parallel numerical model, employing a finite difference explicit scheme for the analysis of coupled heat and moisture transfer in unsaturated soil, is employed to simulate a laboratory experiment of heating of medium sand. The model, written in a two-dimensional polar co-ordinate formulation, is programmed in the concurrent language Occam and executed on a parallel computing network of transputers. Parallelization is adopted as a means of overcoming computing difficulties, which limited numerical solutions to those at steady state, to enable transient behaviour to be simulated.The parallel algorithm was found to be very efficient, enabling a full solution of transient behaviour to be obtained. An investigation of the ability of the model to accurately simulate the complex, interrelated coupled nature of both two-dimensional transient and steady-state behaviour yielded very good correlation between experimental and numerical results. It can therefore be concluded that overall the results obtained provide confidence in the validity of the approach proposed.

    Notes: The motions of fluid and solid phases in saturated porous media are coupled by inertial, viscous and mechanical interactions as described by Biot's equations. A one-dimensional exact analytical solution of the Biot's equations for the completely general solution of the transient problem in saturated, linear, elastic, porous media is presented. The problem is solved by using the Fourier series. The transient response of porous media is shown for typical material properties of a natural granular deposit and for different degrees of viscous coupling. The analytical results show the mechanics of dispersive wave propagation in saturated porous media and they should provide a useful comparison term for the existing numerical solution methods.

    Notes: A neural network approach for the prediction of pile bearing capacity by the stress-wave matching technique is presented. The main advantage of this approach over the traditional manual or automated matching approach is that it avoids the time-consuming process of iterative adjustment. This makes it feasible to determine the static pile capacity in real time in the field. Another benefit of this approach is that as more case histories become available, the neural network can be improved by learning from these new examples.A three-layer back-propagation network is set up to illustrate the capability of the proposed approach for 70 dynamically tested concrete bored piles. A wave equation model developed at the National University of Singapore and coded in the NUSWAP computer program is used to formulate the problem. Up to 14 of the 70 piles (20 percent) are used in training the network. The NUSWAP program is used to generate simulation training examples based on the manually fitted training examples for further training of the network. Different network configurations are examined. The trained network produces results exhibiting good stress-wave matching qualities compared to those obtained by manual fitting. The pile bearing capacities predicted by the two approaches agree very closely. The load-settlement curve and axial load distribution in the pile computed using the network-predicted soil parameters are in good agreement with the field measurements obtained from a maintained load test.

    Notes: A stable crack extension is a precondition for fracture toughness tests using chevron-notched specimens. The paper analyses the stability problem for crack extension in two chevron-notched specimens suggested by ISRM. Stability factors are calculated with various compliances of testing machine under different loading conditions. It is pointed out that the loading manner, compliance of the testing machine, as well as the specimen configurations have great influence on crack growth stability.
