Influence of Load Frequency on Cohesive Soil Respond
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
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 ...

Evaluation and Comparison of two Frequently Used Cyclic Constitutive Models for Sandy Soils [PDF]
Selection of an appropriate soil constitutive model for advanced numerical analyses requires thorough understanding of behavior of constitutive models. Here, SANISAND and HS-SMALL models which are advanced widely available soil models for cyclic behavior

Long-Term Cyclic Triaxial Tests With Dem Simulations
The present paper presents the capability of Discrete Element Method (DEM) to simulate a long-term cyclic drained triaxial test (up to 100,000 cycles). The results regard the progressive accumulation of plastic strain as function of the number of particles and the initial particles rearrangement.

A Comparison between Simple Shear and Triaxial Tests for Evaluating the Variations of G and D with Matric Suction [PDF]
Shear modulus (G) and damping ratio (D) are both well known as principal soil dynamic parameters. In the present study, cyclic triaxial and simple shear tests are performed on Firuzkuh silica sand at various shear strain amplitudes using the developed ...

Effects of cyclic loading on lateral bearing capacity of single pile in silty seabed
Under larger wave loading, the bearing capacity of marine single pile foundation will be reduced, even instability occurs. A series of undrained shear triaxial tests on the remolded marine silt in Hangzhou Bay are carried out by means of the GDS triaxial

An appraisal of end conditions in advanced monotonic and cyclic triaxial testing on a range of geomaterials [PDF]
Compressing samples between rigid platens, as in triaxial testing, induce non-uniform specimen stress, strain and pore water distributions. Although well recognised historically, the effects of such platen restraints are often disregarded or overlooked ...
