2 Objectives In this exercise, the student develops a FLAC model to replicate the dynamic behavior of geofoam embankment for the case of a rectangular geofoam mass resting on a soil foundation with sliding allowed in the geofoam under horizontal sinusoidal input motion only. The lump mass (load distribution slab, untreated base course and concrete pavement) is placed atop the geofoam and bonded to the top layer, so slippage is not allowed at this interface. ackground Dynamic sliding is one mode of failure and can be explored using interface elements in FLAC and the appropriate friction angle for the interfaces.
