    The author generalizes the plane strain ``double-shearing'' constitutive model to three dimensions, including the effects of elastic deformation and pre-peak behavior. The constitutive model is implemented in a finite element program, and is used to predict the formation of shear bands under plane strain compression, and the expansion of a plane strain cylindrical cavity. The prediction of the model are in good quantitative agreement with some recent experiments on dry sand.
