Experimental evidences have shown deciencies of the existing overstress and creep models for viscous
behaviour of natural soft clay. The purpose of this paper is to develop a modelling method for viscous
behaviour of soft clays without these deciencies. A new anisotropic elasticviscoplastic model is
extended from overstress theory of Perzyna. A scaling function based on the experimental results of constant strain-rate oedometer tests is adopted, which allows viscoplastic strain-rate occurring whether the
stress state is inside or outside of the yielding surface. The inherent and induced anisotropy is modelled
using the formulations of yield surface with kinematic hardening and rotation (S-CLAY1). The parameter
determination is straightforward and no additional experimental test is needed, compared to the Modied Cam Clay model. Parameters determined from two types of tests (i.e., the constant strain-rate
oedometer test and the 24 h standard oedometer test) are examined. Experimental verications are carried out using the constant strain-rate and creep tests on St. Herblain clay. All comparisons between predicted and measured results demonstrate that the proposed model can successfully reproduce the
anisotropic and viscous behaviours of natural soft clays under different loading conditions.

1. Introduction
Deformations and strength of soft clay is highly dependent on the
rate of loading, which is an important topic of geotechnical engineering. The time-dependency of stressstrain behaviour of soft clays has
been experimentally investigated through one-dimensional and triaxial test conditions by numerous researchers (i.e., Bjerrum, 1967;
Vaid and Campanella, 1977; Mesri and Godlewski, 1977; Graham
et al., 1983; Leroueil et al., 1985, 1988; Nash et al., 1992; Sheahan
et al., 1996; Rangeard, 2002; Yin and Cheng, 2006).
The most popular models for time-dependency behaviour of
soft soils, based on Perzynas overstress theory (Perzyna, 1963,
1966), can be classied into two categories:
(1) Conventional overstress models, assuming a static yield surface for stress state within which only elastic strains occur
(e.g., Adachi and Oka, 1982; Shahrour and Meimon, 1995;
Fodil et al., 1997; Rowe and Hinchberger, 1998; Hinchberger
and Rowe, 2005; Mabssout et al., 2006; Yin and Hicher,
2008). In order to determine the viscosity parameters, laboratory tests at very low loading rates are required. However,
it is not an easy task to dene how low the rate should be.
According to the oedometer test results by Leroueil et al.
(1985), the rate should be less than 108 s1. Unfortunately,
these types of tests are not feasible to be conducted for geotechnical practice. Due to this reason, the conventional overstress models are not suitable for practical use. In order to
overcome this limitation, the extended overstress models
have been proposed.
(2) Extended overstress models, assuming viscoplastic strains
occurring even though the stress state is inside of the static
yield surface. In these models, it is not necessary to determining parameters using laboratory tests at very low loading rates. Instead, the determination for the initial size of
static yield surface with parameters of soil viscosity is
straightforward. Models fall into this category can be found
in works by Adachi and Oka (1982), Kutter and Sathialingam
(1992), Vermeer and Neher (1999), Yin et al. (2002) and
Kimoto and Oka (2005). Among these investigators, Adachi
and Okas (1982) model is conventional overstress model,
however, they stated that a pure elastic region is not necessarily used, thus, it can be included in this category.
The models by Vermeer and Neher (1999) and Yin et al. (2002)
based on the concept of Bjerrum (1967) are also termed as creep

way, the initial static yield stress does not exist. Therefore, there is
no need to assume the initial value of static yield stress. The conventional overstress model is then extended and able to produce
viscoplastic strains indenitely in time. It also implies that viscoplastic strains may occur in elastic region.
However, it is to be noted that, until now, there is no experimental
evidence about the relationship between r0p and dev/dt for very low
strain-rate dev/dt < 1 108 s1. The lack of data are expected because it requires a very long duration for tests at low strain-rate
(e.g., a test at dev/dt = 1 109 s1 for ev = 10% needs 3.2 years).
Therefore, the linear relationship at very low strain level is only a
hypothesis. There is no evidence to prove it one way or another.
However, if the linear hypothesis is made, the predicted viscoplastic phenomenon would be equivalent to that for creep models
by Kutter and Sathialingam (1992), Vermeer and Neher (1999) and
Yin et al. (2002). Thus, from a practical point of view, we adopt the
linear hypothesis. Using this hypothesis, there is no need to assume a value of initial static yield stress. A value of reference r0p
can be easily determined from an oedometer test at constant
strain-rate, or from the standard conventional oedometer test
which is the same as the method used in creep models.
2.2. Deciency of creep models
Many clays exhibit strain-hardening behaviour under undrained triaxial compression. Fig. 5(a) shows the typical strain-

(1982) replaced the ratio Fd/Fs by a ratio of the size of dynamic loading surface pdm to that of static yield surface psm (i.e., pdm =psm . This is
different from the method of using parallel yield surface tangents

The rotational hardening law, based on the formulation proposed by Wheeler et al. (2003), describes the development of
anisotropy caused by viscoplastic strains. Both volumetric and
deviatoric viscoplastic strains control the rotation of the yield
curve.

The proposed model was implemented as a user-dened model
in the 2D Version 8 of PLAXIS using the numerical solution proposed by Katona (1984). The basic nite element scheme for the
proposed model is similar to the ones presented by Oka et al.
(1986) and Rowe and Hinchberger (1998). For a coupled consolidation analysis based on Biots theory, the relationship of the load
increment is given by applying the principle of virtual work to
the equilibrium equation as shown by Oka et al. (1986). The coupled nite element equations are well documented by several
researchers (e.g., Oka et al., 1986; Britto and Gunn, 1987; Rowe
and Hinchberger, 1998), and not repeated here.

to the rotation rate of dynamic loading and reference surfaces x.
(3) The third set relates to viscosity (N, l).
For the creep models by Vermeer and Neher (1999) and by Yin
et al. (2002), the viscous volumetric strain-rate is obtained from
the secondary compression coefcient Cae dened in e-lnt space,
given by Eqs. (8a) and (8b), respectively

The value a is the new inclination due to the isotropic consolidation
up to p0f . Leoni et al. (2008) used aK0/a = 10 for the case ln R = 1 to
calculate x based on the suggestion by Anandarajah et al. (1996)

The experimentally measured two parameters are A and B. The value B is the slope of r0p or r0p =r0v 0 dev =dt in double log space; r0p0
is the reference preconsolidation pressure corresponding to the
constant A (i.e., a reference strain-rate e_ v 0 ). From the denition of
elastic and viscoplastic strains, the ratio between the elastic
strain-rate and the viscoplastic strain-rate can be derived as:

for Kaolinite. However, aK0/a = 10 is not always true for other types
of clay, and Leoni et al. (2008) did not propose an experimental
method to determine the value of a. In order to determine a, one
possible way is to carry out a step-changed drained triaxial test,
as shown in Fig. 8. This test consists of three stages: an isotropic
consolidation (path 1), isotropic unloading (path 2), and followed
by a reloading with g 0 (path 3). The isotropic loading is used
to determine R p0f =p0p0 . From reloading stage the yield stress point
B can be determined (see Fig. 8). The new apparent yield surface
passing through points A and B can be used to estimate a by Eq.
(14), which is simplied from Eq. (4) for p0 q space (A is the nal
state of isotropic consolidation).

Leoni et al. (2008) suggested that the reference time s can be assigned equal to the duration of each load increment t for normally

The reference time sr depends on the duration of incremental loading used in the conventional oedometer test, from which the initial

e by using k k0 10ee0 =ck were obtained from the timesettlement curves of oedometer test. Fig. 12(d) shows good agreement
between the simulation based on 24 h test and experiment for
one-dimensional creep behaviour, as expected by the parameter
calibration.
For the simulation based on CRS test, the r0rp0 45 kPa was used
instead of 52 kPa, because the depth of the sample of 24 h test is
1.2 m less than that of the sample of CRS test (keeping the same
OCR r0rp0 =r0v 0 ). The simulation underestimated the vertical strain
due to different values of j and k selected from different tests. The
difference is very small, and the predicted Cae is equal to (k j)/N.
Therefore, the one-dimensional creep behaviour can be predicted
by parameters obtained from CRS test.
For simulating one-dimensional creep test by using nite element code PLAXIS v8, the value of permeability is needed. The soil
permeability k0 = 2 109 m/s and the coefcient ck = 1.15 (the
parameter for the evolution of the permeability k with void ratio
The undrained triaxial compression tests with multistage constant strain-rates on St. Herblain clay (Rangeard, 2002) are used
for model evaluation. The test was conducted at a strain-rate varying from 0.1 to 10%/h after a consolidation stage of 7 days.

The undrained triaxial extension test at a constant strain-rate of

noticeably improved predictions for the stress path in triaxial
