Comparison of sand liquefaction in cyclic triaxial and simple shear tests
The liquefaction resistance and correction factors Kσ and Kα of Nakdong River sand obtained from cyclic triaxial (CTX) tests were compared with those determined by cyclic simple shear (CSS) tests to ascertain the importance of the reduction factor Cr and

Triaxial compression tests on a crushable sand in dry and wet conditions [PDF]
A calcareous sand from the Persian Gulf is subjected to a series of dry and fully drained saturated triaxial shear tests. The samples are prepared at relative densities of 65% and either left dry or saturated. They are consolidated to confining pressures
