Application of Taguchi Method and Genetic Algorithm for Calibration of Soil Constitutive Models

A special inverse analysis method is established in order to calibrate soil constitutive models. Taguchi method as a systematic sensitivity analysis is conducted to determine the real values of mechanical parameters. This technique was applied on the hardening soil (as an elastoplastic constitutive...
