Numerical Modelling of Shear Localization in Granular Bodies using MPM and Non-local Hypoplasticity

The paper deals with modelling of shear localization in granular bodies by means of an enhanced hypoplastic constitutive model and material point method (MPM). The calculations were carried out for plane strain compression of non-cohesive sand. In order to properly capture the width and inclination of shear zones, the constitutive model was enriched by a characteristic length of micro-structure by means of a non-local theory. The approach offered a good correspondence between numerical results and experimental ones.
