dc.description.abstractThis research work involved the implementation of a constitutive model based on plasticity theory to model the behaviour of a clay under cyclic loading. The modelling must be based on an understanding of the soil response and the critical state theory provides a description of the soil response which then be formulated in terms of plasticity theory. A literature review showed that there is a shortage of information on the behaviour of soils under cyclic loading. Constitutive models for 'cyclic loading are discussed to compare the predictions and thus select a model.en_ZA
