Effect of Local Cyclic Loading on Direct Shear Strength Characteristics of Shear-Zone Soil [PDF]
Applied Sciences, 2022 The reservoir landslide in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area (TGRA) often suffers from local cyclic loading scenarios produced by surge waves, groundwater level fluctuation, traffic loading, and seismic activity.

In Situ Shear Test for Revealing the Mechanical Properties of the Gravelly Slip Zone Soil
Sensors, 2020 Slip zone soil is usually composed of clay or silty clay; in some special geological environments, it contains gravels, which make the properties of the slip zone soil more complex.

Friction of Shear-Fracture Zones [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2017 A shear fracture of brittle solids under compression undergoes a substantial evolution from the initial microcracking to a fully formed powder-filled shear zone. Experiments covering the entire process are relatively easy to conduct, but they are very difficult to investigate in detail. Numerically, the large strain limit has remained a challenge.

Shear zones in granular media: 3D Contact Dynamics simulation [PDF]
, 2007 Shear zone formation is investigated in slow 3D shear flows. We simulate the linear version of the split-bottom shear cell. It is shown that the same type of wide shear zones is achieved in the presence as well as in the absence of gravity.
