This technical note analyzes the permissible range of fractional order in modeling flow liquefaction of sand. The authors propose a state-dependent fractional elastoplastic model without predefined state parameters and simulate a series of test results for different sands under flow liquefaction. The permissible range of the fractional order is analyzed by evaluating the second-order work for predicting flow liquefaction instability of sand, suggesting that the fractional order should be less than two.
To capture the state-dependent behaviour of granular soil, an interdisciplinary approach, fractional plasticity, was proposed. However, the permissible value of the fractional-derivative order has not been evaluated. This technical note aims to analyse the permissible range of fractional order from the perspective of modelling flow liquefaction of sand. A state-dependent fractional elastoplastic model without using predefined state parameters is proposed. Then, a series of test results of different sands under flow liquefactions are simulated. Permissible range of the fractional order is analysed by evaluating the second-order work for predicting flow liquefaction instability of sand, where it is suggested that the fractional order should be less than two.
