Abstract
The present report gives a general discussion of typical behaviour
and modelling concepts used in soil mechanics. Characteristic
mechanical features for friction materials, such as stress state
dependency, nonlinearity, dilation and anisotropy, are discussed as
well as the factors affecting such features. A short overview of
existing model concepts used in soil mechanics is presented.
Various approaches e.g. elasticity, elasto-plasticity as well as
the micromechanical approach are considered. Several models are
described in details and their limitations and area of application
are discussed.
