10 14th Crisp user meeting at UCL10 Comparison of CPU times More than 1hr Less than 12min

11 14th Crisp user meeting at UCL11 Comparison of Modified Newton-Raphson methods ICFEP (by Potts et al, 1999) The MNR results are insensitive to increment size e.g. Pile problem: SAGE CRISP The MNR results are dependent on increment size The MNR solution was not fully implemented in connection with relationship between load and displacement norms, being based only on the displacement norm convergence checking system at the moment There is no detailed information of the MNR iterative solution in the Crisp technical manual

12 14th Crisp user meeting at UCL12 Conclusions CPU time can be improved through the reasonable mesh type using the Linear strain quadrilateral elements (i.e. LSQs). In numerical analysis using the slip element, the MNR iterative solution result is very sensitive to the number of increments (or increment size) in contrast to the comment by Potts et al. (1999). In the New Mohr-Coulomb soil model (i.e. linear elastic perfectly plastic model), the value of dilation angle (  ) is a key factor in order to satisfy the displacement norm convergence.
