Introduction<br />
<strong>Hardening</strong> <strong>Soil</strong> (HS) and <strong>Hardening</strong> <strong>Soil</strong>-<strong>small</strong> (HS-<strong>small</strong>)<br />
<strong>model</strong>s are designed to reproduce basic phenomena exhibited<br />
by soils:<br />
densification<br />
<strong>stiffness</strong> stress dependency<br />
plastic yielding<br />
dilatancy<br />
strong <strong>stiffness</strong> variation <strong>with</strong> growing shear <strong>strain</strong> amplitude<br />
in the regime of <strong>small</strong> <strong>strain</strong>s (γ = 10 −6 to γ = 10 −3 )<br />
this phenomenon plays a crucial role for <strong>model</strong>ing deep<br />
excavations and soil-structure interaction problems<br />
NB. This <strong>model</strong> is limited to monotonic loads<br />
