Problem about BoundingCamClay

Post by shuaicai »

Hello, everyone. The soil constitutive is BoundingCamClay in my model, While, When I submit my job, there are some problems whether totle stress or effective stress method.
Warning: BoundingCamClay::getCopy--subclass responsibility.(totle stress) opensees have stopped working(effective stress).
BoundingCamClay model parameter as follows:
set C 1.0
set B 5555.56
set OCR 1.5
set G 5.4e3
set alpha 0
set lambda 0.13
set h 5.0e3
set m 1.5
nDMaterial BoundingCamClay 1 $rho_s $C $B $OCR $G $alpha $lambda $h $m
nDMaterial FluidSolidPorous 2 2 1 2.2e6
Do Material parameters have any questions? or other?

I don't see anything glaringly wrong with how you've created your nDMaterial objects. I suspect that the problem lies with how the FluidSolidPorous wrapper material is interacting with the BoundingCamClay. I've never tried using them in combination together, have only ever done total stress analysis with the BoundingCamClay material.

Can you post or attach your model file?
