Abstract

In this study, an isotropic hardening constitutive model is presented to study the behavior of frozen soil under impact loading. In plasticity, a modified Drucker–Prager yield function is adopted. Based on the experimental investigations at different strain rates and different temperatures by means of split Hopkinson pressure bar, the Drucker–Prager criterion has been modified with consideration in the effect of strain rate, and the model parameters have been determined. Compared the constitutive model with the experimental results, the predicted tendencies of the model corresponded well to the test curves.
