• Simple vs. Simplified Models
• Simple models not necessarily valid.
• Model and parameters must depend on Factors that affect
the practical behavior.
•A function-model (hyperbola, parabola, spline) may be
called “simple”, but they cannot account for important
factors such as volume change, stress path, plastic
deformations, and directional dependence of strength.
• Such “simple” models often have greater number of
parameters than the advanced or simplified models
• Number of parameters will depend on the practical factors
SIMPLIFIED MODEL More appropriate
