Characterizing the Effect of Water Content on Small-Strain Shear Modulus of Qiantang Silt
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 Due to the impact of natural and artificial influence, such as waves, tides, and artificial dewatering, the small-strain shear modulus of soils may vary with the water content of soil, causing deformation of excavations and other earth structures.

Experimental study on dynamic shear characteristics of loess under cyclic torsional shearing
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2020 The unsaturated intact loess has remarkable structured properties. Its structure is damaged by wetting and cyclic shear action, which leads to the development of shear and subsidence deformation of loess under earthquake.
