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.

Analysis of the Direct Shear Test and Microstructure of the Lunar Soil Simulant Solidified by Sodium Silicate

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2022
The lunar soil is an ideal building material for future lunar base construction. In order to improve the strength of lunar soil, basalt with similar composition to lunar soil was used to simulate lunar soil due to lack of real lunar soil, and the ...

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.
