Predicting the small strain shear modulus of coarse-grained soils

Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2020
Coarse-grained soils are important geotechnical materials widely used in construction. The contribution of particle size distribution on the small strain shear modulus Gmax of coarse-grained soils has not yet been fully recognized. This paper presents an
