Sand liquefaction in simple shear tests [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesLiquefaction is a phenomenon marked by a rapid loss of soil strength and stiffness, which generally occurs in loose saturated sandy deposit during earthquake because of the generation of excess pore water pressure.

On reliability of inferring liquefied shear strengths from simple shear testing
Soils and Foundations, 2022 A laboratory study was carried out to compare the behaviour of loose tailings under simple shear loading using a torsional shear hollow cylinder device (TSHC) and a direct simple shear (DSS) device, with a focus on shear strength at high strains.

Simple Shear Testing on Sand in a Torsional Shear Apparatus
Soils and Foundations, 1988 ABSTRACT A method for simple shear simulation using a hollow cylindrical specimen is described. Drained tests at controlled axial stresses were performed automatically by means of a servosystem consisting of a micro-computer and a pneumatic-controlling system. For undrained tests on saturated specimens the simple shear simulation was achieved only by

Discrete Element Simple Shear Test Considering Particle Shape
Applied Sciences, 2023 The particle shape has significant effects on the slip and rotation of particles in the shear of geomaterials, which is an important factor in the deformation and strength of geomaterials.

Undrained strength of clay determined from simple shear test
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 The undrained shear strength of clay is an important parameter for the design of embankments, shallow foundations, and pile foundations. Among the various methods of testing undrained strength, the simple shear is essential when the shearing mode of the ...

Comparison of sand liquefaction in cyclic triaxial and simple shear tests
Soils and Foundations, 2021 The liquefaction resistance and correction factors Kσ and Kα of Nakdong River sand obtained from cyclic triaxial (CTX) tests were compared with those determined by cyclic simple shear (CSS) tests to ascertain the importance of the reduction factor Cr and

Non-coaxiality of sand under bi-directional shear loading [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 This study aims to investigate the effect of consolidation shear stress magnitude on the shear behaviour and non-coaxiality of soils. In previous drained bi-directional simple shear test on Leighton Buzzard sand, it is showed that the level of non ...
