Abstract: Numerical analysis has more and more applications in the practical geotechnical engineering projects and the Modified Cam Clay Model is a popular constitutive model in these analyses. A twodimensional axisymmetric model was established in commercial finite element software ABAQUS with both soilwater coupling effective stress and automatic time spacing approaches. The model parameters in the ABAQUS were validated in the triaxial tests on normally consolidated and overconsolidated soil samples under consolidated drained and undrained conditions. The parametric studies can be performed in the ABAQUS by using the validated parameters.
