Dilatancy relation for overconsolidated clay [PDF]
, 2017 A distinct feature of overconsolidated (OC) clays is that their dilatancy behavior is dependent on the degree of overconsolidation. Typically, a heavily OC clay shows volume expansion, whereas a lightly OC clay exhibits volume contraction when subjected ...

Effects of cyclic loading on lateral bearing capacity of single pile in silty seabed
Yantu gongcheng xuebaoUnder 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

A simple method for the determination of sensitivity to density changes in sand liquefaction
Open Geomechanics, 2021 Fully saturated loose coarse-grained soils are known to be prone to liquefaction. Conventional laboratory tests for soil liquefaction include usually cyclic testing in triaxial apparatus.

Some contributions to mechanical behaviors of lacustrine deposit in Bogotá, Colombia
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2019 This paper presents the mechanical behaviors of the lacustrine deposit, a representative soil in Bogotá, Colombia. Initially, the physical characterization of the deposit is performed via laboratory tests (grain size distribution, scanning electron ...

Experimental study of strain accumulation of silica sand in a cyclic triaxial test [PDF]
, 2014 The experimental and phenomenological investigation of the elasto-plastic long-term behaviour of soils under dynamic loading is important for the development of risk analysis tools and numerical accumulation models for settlement prediction.
