Aging effects on liquefaction resistance of sand estimated from laboratory investigation

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 2023
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.

A simplified damage evolution relationship and deformation character¬istics of a pozzolanic lime mortar when subjected to unloading-reloading cycles in the pre-peak region

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2019
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]

open access: yesمهندسی عمران شریف, 2022
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 ...

On-sample water content measurement for a complete local monitoring in triaxial testing of unsaturated soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
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 ...

Influence of Load Frequency on Cohesive Soil Respond

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
The mechanism of cohesive soils response to cycling loading is less investigated compared to cohesionless soils. Multiple load-unload cycles cause significant changes in the structure of cohesive soils, which result in complex behaviour under the given ...

Liquefaction Characteristics of Sand With Polypropylene Fiber at Low Confining Stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2020
The present study evaluates the liquefaction characteristics of Ottawa sand with polypropylene fiber using cyclic triaxial test. A series of stress-controlled cyclic triaxial tests were performed at 34.47 kPa (5 psi) effective confining pressure ...
