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.

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 ...

Cyclic degradation in fully saturated sands is a liquefaction phenomenon characterized by the progressive variation of the soil strength and stiffness that occurs when the soil is subjected to cyclic loading in undrained conditions.

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.

Aging effects on liquefaction resistance of sand estimated from laboratory investigation
Liquefaction resistance is known to increase concomitantly with the increase in time after construction or sedimentation. Nevertheless, the mechanisms of its aging effect on liquefaction have not been completely elucidated.

Two series of uniaxial and triaxial compression tests including unloading-reloading cycles were performed under different confining pressures, in order to study the stress-strain and the deformation behavior of a pozzolanic lime mortar subjected to ...

Evaluation of local damping effect on static and dynamic behaviors of granular materials using DEM modeling [PDF]
Frictional sliding may not be sufficient for the stability of a system. In almost all models in the Discrete Element Method (DEM), a local non-viscous damping is used to balance the system by applying a damping force with a magnitude proportional to the ...
