The Shear Strength of Granite Weathered Soil Under Different Hydraulic Paths
At present, there is no clear understanding of the influence of differences in soil mineral composition, particle size grading, and hydraulic paths on the shear strength of unsaturated soil, and the related strength models are not applicable.

Effect of polypropylene fibres on the shear strength of fine-grained soil [PDF]
This paper presents the results of shear strength tests of fine-grained soil reinforced by randomly oriented fibres. The tests were carried out in a direct shear apparatus on samples with a diameter of 100 mm and a height of 20 mm.

Shear Modulus and Shear Strength of Cohesive Soils
ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the relation between initial shear modulus and shear strength of cohesive soils. The initial shear moduli were obtained from the results of the well -shooting tests by means of shear waves, while the shear strength could be obtained from the results of laboratory tests conducted on undisturbed soil ...

Verification of the Fredlund (2019) Unsaturated Shear Strength Function
There has been a proliferation of equations proposed to describe the unsaturated shear strength envelope going back to the 1970s. However, there have been limited studies to verify the suitability of one unsaturated shear strength equation over another ...

Study on the Cyclic Shear Performance of Waste Steel Slag Mixed Soil
Clay soil has poor engineering properties such as poor permeability and low shear strength. Waste steel slag is an industrial by-product formed in the furnace during the steelmaking process which has high quality, durability, anti-slip properties ...
