Abstract:For the end restraint in the drained triaxial test,the program ABAQUS is used to simulate the drained triaxial test to study the effects of different end restraints on the behavior of soft soil under different confining pressures.The results show that without the end restraint,the stress-strain behavior of the specimen can well represent the constitutive model of soil.The end restraints lead to the non-uniformity of stress and strain in the specimen,and the greater the degree of end restraint is,the more obvious the inhomogeneity becomes.The effects of end constraint on the behavior of specimen is not great when the strain is small,but the effects under large strain condition can not be ignored,and the effects of different degrees of end restraint are the same.
