On-sample water content measurement for a complete local monitoring in triaxial testing of unsaturated soils [PDF]
To provide a complete local monitoring of the state of an unsaturated soil sample during triaxial testing, a local water content measurement device was adapted to a triaxial device comprising the measurement of local displacements (Hall effect ...

MRI investigation of granular interface rheology using a new cylinder shear apparatus [PDF]
The rheology of granular materials near an interface is investigated through proton magnetic resonance imaging. A new cylinder shear apparatus has been inserted in the MRI device, which allows the control of the radial confining pressure exerted by the ...

Permeability of the Hydrated Shale under Cyclic Loading and Unloading Conditions
The hydrated shales under cyclic loading and unloading conditions are common for the shale reservoir development; corresponding mechanical properties and permeability evolution are very significant and should be deeply researched.

Cyclic Behavior of Calcareous Sand from the South China Sea
This study examines the cyclic behavior of calcareous sand obtained from the South China Sea. A series of undrained cyclic triaxial tests were performed on the calcareous sand with various relative densities, cyclic stress ratios, and effective confining

Cyclic behaviours of soft silty clay with long-term traffic loading considering drainage conditions
The traffic loading is a typical cyclic loading with variable confining pressure and always lasts long, and is believed to have a significant effect on the subgrade soil, especially for the subgrade filled with soft clay.
