Abstract

Oppressed peoples have always told stories in which they shared images of themselves as powerful and free. Visions and prophecies and stories have shown people what is possible, what is yet to come, what our deepest selves are capable of.

Abstract

Elasto‐plastic models based on critical state formulations have been successful in describing many of the most important features of the mechanical behaviour of soils. This review paper deals with the applications of this class of models to the numerical analysis of geotechnical problems. After a brief overview of the development of the models, the basic critical state formulation is presented together with the main modifications which have actually been used in computational applications. The problems associated with the numerical implementation of this type of models are then discussed. Finally, a summary of reported computational applications and some specific examples of analyses of geotechnical problems using critical state models are presented.
