Cyclic Triaxial Testing: A Primer
Cyclic triaxial tests are frequently used in the laboratory to assess the liquefaction susceptibility of soils. This paper will serve a two-fold purpose: First, it will serve to explain how the mechanics of the tests represent the stresses that occur in ...

Experimental study on the mechanical properties and deformation failure characteristics of sandstone under graded equal amplitude cyclic loading and unloading [PDF]
To investigate the effects of graded equal amplitude cyclic loading on rock deformation and failure, this study examines the influence of confining pressure and upper limit cyclic stress on the deformation parameters, stress–strain hysteresis curves, and

Dissipated energy in undrained cyclic triaxial tests [PDF]
Energy-based methods are an emerging tool for the evaluation of liquefaction potential. These methods relate excess pore water pressure build-up to seismic energy dissipated per unit volume. Further development of these methods require their validation through laboratory testing.

Testing noncohesive geogrid-reinforced soil in triaxial shear apparatus under cyclic loading
In road base layers, geogrids assume the reinforcement or stabilization function where good interaction between geogrid and unbound base material is important.

Comparison of sand liquefaction in cyclic triaxial and simple shear tests
The liquefaction resistance and correction factors Kσ and Kα of Nakdong River sand obtained from cyclic triaxial (CTX) tests were compared with those determined by cyclic simple shear (CSS) tests to ascertain the importance of the reduction factor Cr and

Cyclic triaxial tests on bituminous mixtures [PDF]
In the framework of a study on rutting of bituminous layers, thermo-controlled triaxial tests under constant confining pressure on homogeneous asphalt concrete specimen have been performed. These tests are cyclic sinusoidal tests, with the aim to reproduce in some way the loading and unloading phases due to traffic on roads.

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

Dynamic Properties of Granulated Rubber Using Different Laboratory Tests
Due to the socio-environmental hazards arising from the stockpiling of disposed scrap tires, the necessity to utilize such material in civil construction and other applications is deemed mandatory.

Effect of silt content on cyclic and post-cyclic behavior of saturated loose sand [PDF]
Since most natural deposits are a combination of sand and fine grains and as man-made geotechnical structures like tailing dams have a high percentage of cohesive and cohesionless fine grains, the study of cyclic and post cyclic behavior of these soils ...
