A Constitutive Model for Saturated Gravelly Sand Based on Higher-Order Dilatancy Equation by Dongjie Zhang, Fei Luo, Zhanyuan Zhu, Bin Luo, Jing Li, Zihan Xu, Jiaming Liu

“…To describe these triaxial shearing mechanical properties of gravelly sands, a higher-order dilatancy equation was proposed based on the concept of a super yield surface. A constitutive model which can describe the mechanical properties of gravelly sand was established when the associated flow laws were applied to compare with the results of the triaxial shearing test under the consolidated drained condition. …”

Mechanical Constitutive and Seepage Theoretical Model of Water Storage Media Based on Fractional Derivative by Lujun Wang, Yang Wu, Xiaoqian Zhu, Peng Li, Zhiguo Cao, Huan Yang

“…The mechanical behavior of the broken rock mass is described by Hooke’s law of linear elasticity, and the deformation characteristics of the space among the rock masses are represented by a nonlinear elastic constitutive model. The nonlinear stress-strain constitutive model of the water storage media is established by combining Hooke’s law and the fractional derivative stress-strain model. …”
