Effects of grain size distribution on the initial strain shear modulus of calcareous sand [PDF]
, 2015 The soil’s small strain shear modulus, Gmax or G0, is applied in dynamic behavior analyses and is correlated to other soil properties (density and void ratio) for predicting soil dynamic behavior under seismic loadings such as earthquakes, machinery or ...

Influence of load interval on dynamic properties of subgrade fill in cold regions
Case Studies in Construction MaterialsThe real simulation of vehicle loads is the key to studying the dynamic behaviors of subgrade fill in cold regions. Considering the time interval between adjacent vehicles, a series of dynamic triaxial tests with continuous and intermittent cyclic ...

Resonant Acoustic Determination of Complex Elastic Moduli [PDF]
, 1991 A simple, inexpensive, yet accurate method for measuring the dynamic complex modulus of elasticity is described. Using a 'free-free' bar selectively excited in three independent vibrational modes, the shear modulus is obtained by measuring the frequency ...
