Investigation of Monotonic and Cyclic Behavior of Soft Clay Using Direct Simple Shear Apparatus

open access: yesEngineering Transactions, 2019
The purpose of this research was to study the monotonic and cyclic simple shear mode behavior of Bangkok clay, using direct simple shear apparatus. The monotonic specimens were prepared in a saturated condition and were K0 consolidated before being ...

Modelling the shear-tension coupling of woven engineering fabrics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
An approach to incorporate the coupling between the shear compliance and in-plane tension of woven engineering fabrics, in finite-element-based numerical simulations, is described. The method involves the use of multiple input curves that are selectively

COSMOGRAIL: the COSmological MOnitoring of GRAvItational Lenses VIII. Deconvolution of high resolution near-IR images and simple mass models for 7 gravitationally lensed quasars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We apply the iterative MCS deconvolution method (ISMCS) to near-IR HST archives data of seven gravitationally lensed quasars currently monitored by the COSMOGRAIL collaboration: HE 0047-1756, RX J1131-1231, SDSS J1138+0314, SDSS J1155+6346, SDSS J1226 ...

Test Granular Materials Failure Using Bi-Directional Simple Shear Apparatus: A Review

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
As widely used natural granular materials, sand and clay have been extensively studied. However, its physical and mechanical behavior, such as the shear behavior and deformation under loading, are still not clear.

Tailoring a coherent control solution landscape by linear transforms of spectral phase basis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Finding an optimal phase pattern in a multidimensional solution landscape becomes easier and faster if local optima are suppressed and contour lines are tailored towards closed convex patterns.

Finite element simulation of simple shear tests considering inherent anisotropy

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2021
The absence of complementary shear stress on the side boundary of a specimen in the simple shear tests will cause stress inhomogeneity. An enhanced critical state-based constitutive model is proposed by incorporating the inherent anisotropy fabric, and ...

Simple Shear Tests on Unsaturated Soils

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2016
Abstract Rainfall induces landslides in several geo-environmental contexts through a variety of triggering mechanisms. In shallow covers of unsaturated silts or loose sands, static liquefaction may occur upon shearing or wetting. The paper proposes simple shear and wetting tests performed on remoulded specimens of air-fall volcanic pyroclastic silty ...

Influence of Rotations on the Critical State of Soil Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The ability of grains to rotate can play a crucial role on the collective behavior of granular media. It has been observed in computer simulations that imposing a torque at the contacts modifies the force chains, making support chains less important.

The appropriacy of the analytical models for calculating the shear capacity of cross-laminated timber (CLT) under out-of-plane bending

open access: yesJournal of Wood Science, 2023
Rolling shear, an inherent property of cross-laminated timber (CLT) due to the weak shear strength of cross layers, is always the determinant of load-bearing capacity for short-span CLT members subjected to out-of-plane bending.
