Influence of shear rate on the soil's shear strength

open access: yesEnvironmental engineering, 2021
One of the most important mechanical properties is shear strength. It is conditioned by the value of the maximum shear stress that the soil can withstand before failure. Exceeding the shear strength causes one particle to slide next to another, causing the failure of soil.

Shear strength of granular materials [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Environmental and Civil Engineering, 2009
The shear strength properties of granular materials reflect their inherent force and fabric anisotropy. We analyze the role of fabric and force anisotropies with respect to the critical-state shear strength. Then, a model of accessible geometrical states in terms of particle connectivity and contact anisotropy is presented.

Shear design of HSC beams with combination of links and horizontal web steel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The existing recommendations in Eurocode 2 and the British Code of Practice for the shear design of beams are derived from research conducted essentially on normal-strength concrete (NSC) with cube strengths up to 50 MPa, and it was found that the shear ...

The Tension-Shear and Compression-Shear Joint Strength Model for Unsaturated Clay and Its Application to Slopes

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The capillary component and adsorptive component of matric suction differently impact the soil strength. Due to the cavitation effects of pore water, the adsorption effect dominates the behavior of soil when matric suction exceeds the cavitation tension.

A Novel Hybrid Soft Computing Model Using Random Forest and Particle Swarm Optimization for Estimation of Undrained Shear Strength of Soil

open access: yesSustainability, 2020
Determination of shear strength of soil is very important in civil engineering for foundation design, earth and rock fill dam design, highway and airfield design, stability of slopes and cuts, and in the design of coastal structures.

Shear strength properties of hybrid (hinoki cypress and Japanese cedar) cross-laminated timber

open access: yesJournal of Wood Science, 2021
In this study, the out-of-plane shear strength of hybrid cross-laminated timber (CLT) with outer layers of hinoki (hinoki cypress, Chamaecyparis obtusa) and inner layers of sugi (Japanese cedar, Cryptomeria japonica) is investigated for four different ...

Effect of nano-Al2O3/epoxy resin composite on the shear strength recovery of fractured rock masses with various crack widths and SCA interfacial treatments

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2023
The mechanical properties of grout and the effect of the bonding between grout and the repaired material are the two main factors affecting the shear strength of the material.

An Advanced Shear Strength Criterion for Rock Discontinuities Considering Size and Low Shear Rate

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
The shear strength of the rock discontinuities under different shear rates is of great importance to evaluate the stability of rock mass engineering, which is remarkably influenced by the size effects induced by both the length and the undulated ...

Effects of the presence or absence and the position of glued edge joints in the lamina on the shear strength of glued laminated timber

open access: yesJournal of Wood Science, 2022
Four kinds of glued laminated timber were produced (i.e., one with a glued edge-joint and the other three with nonglued edge joints) in the lamina at different positions toward the depth direction.
