The Decrease of the Strength of Unsaturated Silty Sand [PDF]
It is generally considered that the shear strength of fine soils continuously increases with suction; however, this is not the case for all types of soils. There are some soils whose strength reaches a maximum at certain suction and then reduces with further of suction. Nevertheless, such cases have not been completely documented and analyzed.

Effect of Reinforcement on Properties of Silty Sand
Abstract: The variation of the stress-strain behavior and shear -parameters of reinforced silty sand is studied. The geotextiles were provided at different heights in the sample and tested in unconsolidated undrained condition. Two types of geotextiles, woven and nonwoven were used as reinforcement and the experiment was conducted at three water ...
