Triaxial tension–compression tests for multiaxial cyclic plasticity

International Journal of Plasticity, 1999
Abstract The aim of this paper is to present triaxial tension–compression tests and a new triaxial specimen devoted to the study of cyclic plasticity under non-proportional loadings. Because the stress state in the central part of the specimen is not homogeneous, the analysis of the tests need a 3D finite element computation.

A Compilation of Cyclic Triaxial Liquefaction Test Data

Geotechnical Testing Journal, 1979
Abstract A data base on cyclical soil strength would be of significant assistance in many phases of site evaluation where detailed complete cyclical soil testing is not available or could not economically be obtained. The objective of this study was to develop a partial data base for determining the seismic strength of saturated ...

The stable state in cyclic triaxial testing on sand

Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 1994
Abstract The paper will describe a number of new characteristic phenomena of sand under cyclic loading, which have been discovered by triaxial cell testing, at the Soil Mechanics Laboratory at Aalborg University using test specimens with equal height and diameter.

Cyclic and Postcyclic Triaxial Testing of Ballast and Subballast

Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 2016
AbstractBallast and subballast are two layers of noncohesive, granular materials with different grain sizes filled in the track substructure to bear traffic loadings from train passages. The performance and sustainability of a track substructure depend on both of these two granular layers. This paper presents the experimental results of cyclic triaxial

Cyclic triaxial tests with continuous measurement of dissipated energy

International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1983
Abstract This article describes conventional cyclic triaxial tests on a uniform sand in which the amount of energy dissipated by the specimen was continuously monitored. Energy monitoring was achieved by means of a digital circuit that automatically integrated the force-displacement signals as the test progressed.

Unloading Elastic Behavior of Sand in Cyclic Triaxial Tests

Geotechnical Testing Journal, 2016
Abstract In this paper, digital image technology was used in the surface-deformation measurement of soil, making it possible to monitor the axial, radial, and volumetric deformations and the deformation distribution over the entire surface of specimens in triaxial tests.

Defining Y2 Yielding From Cyclic Triaxial Tests

Geotechnical Testing Journal, 2013
Abstract This paper presents the yielding characteristics of overconsolidated Bootlegger Cove Formation (BCF) clays extracted from the Port of Anchorage construction site. Additionally, it extends the critical shear strain concept to define the point at which irrecoverable deformations begin (Y2 yielding) to the case of fully reversed ...

Cyclic loading triaxial testing of crushed rubble and lava

Bulletin of the International Association of Engineering Geology, 1984
This paper describes a laboratory investigation into the suitability of crushed rubble as a substitute for conventional road base materials. The rubble investigated was a mixture of crushed concrete and crushed bricks, whilst lava from the Eifel was chosen as a reference material.

Results of the cyclic triaxial testing on mechanically–biologically treated waste

Waste Management & Research: The Journal for a Sustainable Circular Economy
Accurate assessment of the dynamic strength characteristics of mechanically–biologically treated (MBT) waste is crucial for the construction and safe operation of landfill sites. Herein, samples of MBT waste from the Hangzhou Tianziling landfill were collected and subjected to consolidated undrained cyclic triaxial tests under four confinement levels ...

Mechanical performance of recycled aggregates in cyclic triaxial testing

2017
In Belgium, more than 6,000 t of recycled concrete and masonry aggregates are produced every year, coming from civil engineering demolition works. They contain up to 50% of masonry. It is allowed to recycle them in road bases and subbases if they satisfy the requirements set in the standard specifications.
