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 ...

Effect of Mean Grain Size on the Small-Strain Dynamic Properties of Calcareous Sand
Calcareous sand was selected as the prior material for island reclamation in many coastal regions. The mechanical properties of the granular materials are greatly affected by their grain size distribution conditions.

Piezoelectric Ring Bender for Characterization of Shear Waves in Compacted Sandy Soils
Shear wave velocity and small-strain shear modulus are widely used as the mechanical properties of soil. The objective of this study is to develop a new shear wave monitoring system using a pair of piezoelectric ring benders (RBs) and to evaluate the ...
