Unified Model for Small-Strain Shear Modulus of Variably Saturated Soil [PDF]
Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering - ASCE, 2016 AbstractThe small-strain shear modulus G0 is a property fundamental to the deformation response of soils to dynamic loading. It depends on soil mineralogy, particle characteristics, void ratio, effective stress, and the degree of saturation. Some theories have been established to predict G0 of soils under variably saturated conditions.

DEM analysis of small and small-to-medium strain shear modulus of sands
Computers and Geotechnics, 2022 Abstract Despite the significant progresses in discrete-based numerical studies of granular materials, most efforts have been placed in the study of large deformation problems and there are many unresearched areas in the multi-scale analysis and the influence of grain-scale parameters on the bulk behavior of granular systems in the regime of small ...

Temperature-Dependent Model for Small-Strain Shear Modulus of Unsaturated Soils [PDF]
Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2020 Near-surface soils in geotechnical and geoenvironmental applications are often unsaturated, and natural or imposed changes in temperature may lead to a softening effect at constant suction ...
