NorSand constitutive model is
a critical state model was originated from the sand behavior
in tailing dam previously. But, the model is widely applicable
to the ground from clay silt to sand. NorSand requires
relatively few soil properties that can be collected from
regular laboratory and in-situ tests so that users can
get results easily. The consideration of a state parameter
which is the difference between the current void ratio
and the void ratio of its critical state is the prime
advantage.
