Maximum shear modulus estimative from SPT for some Brazilian tropical soils
Maximum shear modulus (G0) has been used in various geotechnical jobs (e.g., seismic site assessment, machine vibration and pile driven). Laboratory and in situ determination of G0 is not a current practice in Brazil. G0 can be estimated from empirical correlations based on in situ tests like Standard Penetration Test (SPT) and Cone Penetration Test ...

Maximum shear modulus and modulus degradation curves of an unsaturated tropical soil
The maximum shear modulus (G0) and the modulus degradation curve (G/G0 versus γ) are important information in the evaluation of the soil mechanical behavior, both for dynamic and static loads. Dynamic tests (resonant column and cyclic triaxial tests) are not routinely performed in geotechnical practice in Brazil, and the geotechnical literature on the ...

Predicting the Maximum Shear Modulus of Sands Containing Nonplastic Fines
AbstractThere are some attempts to evaluate Hardin’s equation for transition soils, i.e., sand mixed with a systematic increase of fines (particle size≤0.075 mm) content, fc.

Maximum Shear Modulus of Cement-Treated Singapore Marine Clay
In this study, bender element was adopted to test the maximum shear modulus of cement-treated Singapore marine clay. The effects of factors such as cement content and total water content on the maximum shear modulus of cement-treated clay was evaluated.

Plastisol Foaming Process. Decomposition of the Foaming Agent, Polymer Behavior in the Corresponding Temperature Range and Resulting Foam Properties [PDF]
The decomposition of azodicarbonamide, used as foaming agent in PVC - plasticizer (1/1) plastisols was studied by DSC. Nineteen different plasticizers, all belonging to the ester family, two being polymeric (polyadipates), were compared.
