Very-small to large strain dynamic behaviour of unsaturated sand in a wide range of suction [PDF]
Shear modulus (Gmax at very small strain and G at large strain) and constraint modulus at very small strain (M) are important soil parameters for static and dynamic analysis in geotechnical applications.

Influence of Overburden on Seismic Compression [PDF]
The state of practice for estimating ground settlements from seismic compression is the simplified procedure. This method was developed in the 1980's and gets its name from the relatively easy method of estimating shear strain demands from potential ...

Sand liquefaction in simple shear tests [PDF]
Liquefaction is a phenomenon marked by a rapid loss of soil strength and stiffness, which generally occurs in loose saturated sandy deposit during earthquake because of the generation of excess pore water pressure.
