The sudden loss in load carrying capacity of a soil specimen from its homogeneous material
response is coined as the onset of instability or bifurcation in geomaterials. A numerical …

The study presents a theoretical analysis of liquefaction instability in sands using Extended
Mohr Coulomb model. Experimental observations reported in the literature have indicated a …

Subjected to external loads, granular materials experience severe deformation in a narrow
zone before their failure. This phenomenon, which is called strain localisation or shear band …

The influence of perturbation magnitude and extent of area on the emergence of localized
instability in sand specimens subjected to biaxial loading has been explored within a …

The present study focuses on finite element analysis (FEM) of instability in saturated sands.
The numerical simulation is performed under undrained conditions on the saturated triaxial …
