Correlations between the stress paths of a monotonic test and a cyclic test under the same initial conditions [PDF]
, 2017 In most experimental studies on liquefaction, cyclic loadings are applied on specimens with various initial conditions. However, few studies compared cyclic test results with monotonic results under the same initial conditions.

Calculating the state parameter in crushable sands [PDF]
, 2019 The state parameter (y) measures the distance from the current state to the critical state line (CSL) in the compression plane. The existence of a correlation between both the peak angle of shearing resistance ( # $ ) and peak dilatancy and y is central ...

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 ...

Liquefaction Resistance From a Ductility Viewpoint
Soils and Foundations, 2000 Very few attempts have been made to evaluate the liquefaction resistance from a ductility viewpoint. The authors propose a new method to evaluate the ductility of soils against liquefaction, based on the energy dissipation capacity obtained from stress-strain loops of the constant-strain-controlled cyclic triaxial test.

Liquefaction evaluation of dam foundation soils considering overlying structure
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2015 The liquefaction analysis procedure conducted at a dam foundation associated with a layer of liquefiable sand is presented. In this case, the effects of the overlying dam and an embedded diaphragm wall on liquefaction potential of foundation soils are ...

Geotechnics, 2022 Earthquake-induced liquefaction is one of the major causes of building damage as it decreases the strength and stiffness of soil. The liquefaction resistance of soils increases significantly as the degree of saturation decreases, making soil desaturation
