There is the opportunity to specify the nonlinear behavior of «Geogrid» element that is intended for modeling of geosynthetic materials and the opportunity to take into account creep in the latest version (2017) of the Plaxis program. The numerical modeling gives the possibility to make a calculation taking into account not only geosynthetic materials creep, but also soils creep. The rheological behavior of «Geogrid» element is based on the theory of the idealized creep of geosynthetic materials and the theory of Kelvin-Voigt. It is necessary for calculations to set the stiffness under short term tension and stiffness along the isochrone of estimated time and a specific parameter retardation time. An example of the calculation of an embankment on soft soils is presented in the report with respect to soils strengthening in the consolidation process, soils creep (model SoftSoil) and creep of geogrids. The required strength of a geosynthetic layer is determined in dependence on these factors.
