Triaxial compression tests on a crushable sand in dry and wet conditions [PDF]

, 2015
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

The unrestricted Skyrme-tensor time-dependent Hartree-Fock and its application to the nuclear response from spherical to triaxial nuclei

, 2012
The nuclear time-dependent Hartree-Fock model formulated in the three-dimensional space,based on the full Skyrme energy density functional and complemented with the tensor force,is presented for the first time.

Fault reactivation by fluid injection: Controls from stress state and injection rate [PDF]

, 2018
We studied the influence of stress state and fluid injection rate on the reactivation of faults. We conducted experiments on a saw-cut Westerly granite sample under triaxial stress conditions.

A new slurry-based method of preparation of specimens of sand containing fines [PDF]

, 2007
A new method of specimen reconstitution is presented that is appropriate for element testing of sands containing either plastic or nonplastic fines. The method allows reconstitution of homogeneous, saturated specimens of sands containing fines whose ...

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 ...

How terrestrial planets traverse spin-orbit resonances: A camel goes through a needle's eye

, 2012
The dynamical evolution of terrestrial planets resembling Mercury in the vicinity of spin-orbit resonances is investigated using comprehensive harmonic expansions of the tidal torque taking into account the frequency-dependent quality factors and Love ...

Use of elastic stability analysis to explain the stress-dependent nature of soil strength [PDF]

, 2015
The peak and critical state strengths of sands are linearly related to the stress level, just as the frictional resistance to sliding along an interface is related to the normal force. The analogy with frictional sliding has led to the use of a ‘friction

True triaxial modeling test of high-sidewall underground caverns subjected to dynamic disturbances

Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering
Seismicity resulting from the near- or in-field fault activation significantly affects the stability of large-scale underground caverns that are operating under high-stress conditions.
