Resum

El modelado numérico es una herramienta poderosa para determinar la relación esfuerzo-deformación de las estructuras. Sin embargo, para una aplicación confiable, los modelos físicos y matemáticos deben ser calibrados y validados. Este artículo presenta una mirada a la calibración numérica empleando el método de elementos finitos y ensayos físicos de placa de carga en un terraplén. Se realiza además un análisis de los modelos constitutivos empleados en suelos y se selecciona el modelo constitutivo elástico-plástico de Mohr-Coulomb por ser el que mejor se acomoda a este estudio. Se utilizan los resultados de tres áreas de prueba dentro de un proyecto de refinería que el gobierno cubano llevó a cabo en la provincia de Cienfuegos. El modelo numérico empleado en este estudio se calibró empleando la teoría de errores y la prueba de hipótesis no paramétrica U de Mann-Whitney. Desde un punto de vista práctico, este estudio brinda dos procedimientos para calibrar un modelo numérico con resultados experimentales.
