Small-Strain Shear Modulus and Strength Increase of Cement-Treated Clay [PDF]
Abstract A simple nondestructive technique was used as an alternative method to monitor the hardening of cement-treated clay as a function of time. The principle of this monitoring technique is based on the use of bender elements to measure the small-strain shear modulus (G0) at various time intervals. The strength increase was monitored

Small-strain triaxial tests and constitutive modeling of Shanghai soft clays
In order to reduces the influence of the existing buildings in the surrounding area, the surrounding soil of the new project usually requires the control of the small strain state (0.001%~0.1%).

Comparison and application of small strain shear moduli from field and laboratory measurements
The small-strain shear modulus plays an important role in the calculations of ground seismic response and deformation in deep excavations. The values of the small strain shear modulus G0 of Shanghai soils by field and laboratory tests are investigated ...

Small-strain shear modulus of calcareous sand under anisotropic consolidation [PDF]
In this study, the small-strain shear modulus of a calcareous sand was investigated by conducting bender element tests on both horizontal and vertical planes. The effects of sample preparation method, stress path and stress history on the developing of void ratio, the parameters in the modified Hardin Equation, and the stiffness anisotropy were ...
