title = "Numerical modelling of a test embankment on soft clay improved with vertical drains",
abstract = "Vertical drains are used the facilitate consolidation by reducing the drainage paths. This paper presents the consolidation behaviour of soft clay improved with vertical drains underneath a test embankment. For comparison, consolidation behaviour of the unimproved soft clay is also presented. Numerical analyses have been performed with an elastoplastic model which accounts for plastic anisotropy and destructuration and a elasto-viscoplastic model which accounts additionally for soil viscosity.",
