笔者拜读了《岩土工程学报》2011年第4期发表的题为“土体耗散势的不存在与不可解耦”一文[1(]以下简称“原文”)。原文讨论了最近发展起来的,基于热力学理论,利用两个势函数即自由能势函数和耗散势函数建立土的本构方程的方法。该方法由于具有科学性、严密性和系统性,并能克服传统研究方法的诸多不足,因此受到越来越多的研究者的关注和重视 The author read the “Geotechnical Engineering” 2011 the fourth issue of entitled “soil dissipation potential of the non-existent and can not be decoupled,” a paper [1 (hereinafter referred to as “original ”). The original paper discusses a recently developed method based on thermodynamic theory that uses two potential functions, the free potential function and the dissipation potential function, to establish the constitutive equations of the soil. Due to its scientificness, compactness and systematicness, this method can overcome many shortcomings of traditional research methods and is therefore attracting more and more researchers’ attention and attention
