Study Shear Strength Characteristics of Gypseous Sandy Soil Using Additives [PDF]

Engineering and Technology Journal, 2013
The present study investigated the possibility of enhancing collapsible gypseous soil of Al-Qarma site (with relatively high gypsum content around 50%), which is located in Al-Anbar Governorate, using kaolinite and bentonite as additives.

Experimental study on the shear creep behavior of residual soil with varying rock content. [PDF]

PLoS One
Using residual soil from the Shanghecun landslide in the western Henan Province, shear creep tests of residual soil samples with different rock contents (RCs) were performed to explore the creep characteristics, creep rate, and long-term strength of the ...

Effects of Moisture and Stone Content on the Shear Strength Characteristics of Soil-Rock Mixture

Materials, 2023
Soil-rock mixture is a commonly used geotechnical material used in many construction projects, such as slopes, tunnels, and dams. The shear strength of soil-rock mixture is its key property and is affected by many factors. This study aimed to investigate

Influence of shear rate on the soil's shear strength

Environmental 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.

Prediction of Soil Shear Strength Parameters Using Combined Data and Different Machine Learning Models

Applied Sciences, 2022
Soil shear strength is an important indicator of soil erosion sensitivity and the tillage performance of the cultivated layer. Measuring soil shear strength at a field scale is difficult, time-consuming, and costly.

Physical and Mechanical Characteristics of Shallow Expansive Soil due to Freeze-Thaw Effect with Water Supplement

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2021
Shear strength of shallow expansive soil varies along with the depth under the freeze-thaw effect. This work investigates shear strength characteristics of shallow expansive soil by simulating the actual freeze boundary conditions of seasonal frozen ...

Influence of Swelling on Shear Strength of Expansive Soil and Slope Stability

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Rainfall is the main factor leading to the landslide of expansive soil slope. To deeply understand the instability mechanism of expansive soil slope under rainfall conditions, it is necessary to clarify the strength attenuation mechanism of expansive ...

Effect of the optimum and residual moisture content on the strength characteristics of unsaturated sands [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2023
Soil exists mainly in unsaturated conditions. Therefore, accurate prediction of the soil shear strength for unsaturated conditions also becomes equally important for the geotechnical design of earth structures.
