A three‐invariant continuum cap plasticity model with viscoplastic features is developed for modeling the large deformation of soil. Multiple failure mechanisms including combined shear and compaction yielding and loss of strength under tension can be captured by this model. The shear yield surface of the model is formulated to be nonlinear and pressure‐dependent. The model also features a cap surface...
