Cohesion in PDMY materials

Post by koorosh »

Hi
I want to model a soil that is pressure dependent and also have cohesion. But PDMY and PDMY02 doesnt have cohesion parameter. So what should i do know?
Any help is appreciated.

The last parameter $c is the cohesion.

(Also similar for PressureDependMultiYield02)
