Evaluating the maximum shear modulus (G0) for different bender-soil coupling loads [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
The current paper aims to test the effects of vertical loads on the maximum shear modulus (G0). The tests were undertaken with unsaturated soils in unconfined conditions.

The maximum shear modulus of expansive soil during wetting-drying processes and its prediction

open access: yesShuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi, 2021
In order to examine the dynamic characteristics of expansive soil in natural environment, the maximum shear modulus of undisturbed and remoulded Nanyang expansive soil specimens were tested by using a triaxial apparatus equipping with a pair of bender ...

Experimental Study of the Dynamic Shear Modulus of Saturated Coral Sand under Complex Consolidation Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
The shear modulus is an essential parameter that reflects the mechanical properties of the soil. However, little is known about the shear modulus of coral sand, especially under complex consolidation conditions. In this paper, we present the results of a

Effect of Mean Grain Size on the Small-Strain Dynamic Properties of Calcareous Sand

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2022
Calcareous sand was selected as the prior material for island reclamation in many coastal regions. The mechanical properties of the granular materials are greatly affected by their grain size distribution conditions.

Shear modulus of hydrate bearing calcareous sand-fines mixture [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2019
This article presents a laboratory study on the maximum shear modulus of a THF hydrate bearing calcareous sand (CS)–fines mixture. The maximum shear modulus was inferred from the shear wave velocity measured from the bender elements installed in a ...

Changes in echo intensity of the gastrocnemius muscle with passive ankle dorsiflexion: can echo intensity be used to assess muscle elongation?

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Introduction: While shear modulus has been used as an index of muscle elongation, high costs prevent its general adoption. A more general indicator that can quantify muscle elongation non-invasively is needed to develop effective methods for stretching ...

Comparative investigation on dynamic shear modulus and damping ratio of marine soils in different seas

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2020
To understand the variation characteristics of dynamic shear modulus G and damping ratio with the increasing depth H of marine soils, a series of resonant column tests are performed on silty clay with various depths taken from the three borehole ...

Detecting age-related changes in skeletal muscle mechanics using ultrasound shear wave elastography

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Aging leads to a decline in muscle mass and force-generating capacity. Ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) is a non-invasive method to capture age-related muscular adaptation.

Experimental study on dynamic shear characteristics of loess under cyclic torsional shearing

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2020
The unsaturated intact loess has remarkable structured properties. Its structure is damaged by wetting and cyclic shear action, which leads to the development of shear and subsidence deformation of loess under earthquake.
