Datasets for gravelly soil liquefaction case histories [PDF]
This data article provides summarized information on the liquefaction case histories of gravelly soil from 17 earthquakes. 234 historical cases based on the shear wave velocity test and dynamic penetration test are carefully compiled and corrected ...

A Constitutive Relationship for Gravelly Soil Considering Fine Particle Suffusion [PDF]
Suffusion erosion may occur in sandy gravel dam foundations that use suspended cutoff walls. This erosion causes a loss of fine particles, degrades the soil strength and deformation moduli, and adversely impacts the cutoff walls of the dam foundation, as well as the overlying dam body.

Monotonic and Cyclic Tests of Interface between Structure and Gravelly Soil
Monotonic and cyclic behavior of the interface between a structure and gravelly soil was investigated using systematical tests. A series of monotonic and cyclic tests of the interface between a steel plate and gravel were conducted using a large-scale test apparatus through varying gravel types, surface roughnesses of steel plates, normal boundary ...

Seismic liquefaction has been reported in sandy soils as well as gravelly soils. Despite sandy soils, a comprehensive case history record is still lacking for developing empirical, semi-empirical, and soft computing models to predict this phenomenon in ...

Influence of coarse-grained content in the gravelly soil on steady seepage of high earth-rock dam
Gravelly soil has been mostly used as the core material of the high earth-rock dam. When the coarse-grained content of a gravelly soil (referring to the mass fraction, the same below) may exceed 50%, the coefficient of permeability of a gravelly soil is ...

Laboratory measurements of the erodibility of gravelly soils [PDF]
The critical shear stress and erodibility of soil are fundamental parameters for modeling embankment breaching. Unfortunately, very few studies have examined the erosion characteristics of soils consisting predominantly of particles larger than sand. This report presents results of an experimental study in which the erosion characteristics of gravelly ...

Large-scale triaxial wetting deformation tests and laws of gravelly soil core materials
Wetting deformation of water storage has always been a technical issue that restricts the long-term safety operation of high earth-rockfill dams. The wetting deformation tests have been commonly carried out for rockfill materials, but seldom for gravelly

In Situ Shear Test for Revealing the Mechanical Properties of the Gravelly Slip Zone Soil
Slip zone soil is usually composed of clay or silty clay; in some special geological environments, it contains gravels, which make the properties of the slip zone soil more complex.

Experimental study on wetting deformation characteristics of gravelly soil core materials
A series of single-line wetting deformation tests are carried out on the gravelly soil core materials using a large stress triaxial apparatus to systematically investigate the variation of wetting deformation with stress level and confining pressure ...
