Stress Conditions in Triaxial Compression

Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers, 1960
Investigation of stresses and deformations occurring in test specimen, during triaxial compression test, used to determine shearing strength of soil; influence of end restraint on cylindrical test specimens exerted by stiff loading plates with any degree of roughness, is considered by introduction of simplified roughness function; numerical solutions ...

Stress Distributions in Triaxial Compression Samples

Journal of the Geotechnical Engineering Division, 1974
A series of tests was performed whose objective was to measure stress distributions in triaxial compression samples with lubricated and nonlubricated end conditions. Results for both conditions are presented. Conclusions discuss compression testing techniques that represent near-ideal conditions for the reliable observation of stress-strain behavior in

Mechanical triaxial compression machines

Journal of Mining Science, 2008
The author describes the design of the mechanical triaxial compression machine, its capabilities, test procedure and data processing results, and some of metrology issues. The machine approval on fracture sand-and-clay rocks is exemplified.

Elastic energy and relaxation in triaxial compressions

Granular Matter, 2011
For a quasi-statically sheared granular system, the deformation of individual particles leads to reversible energy storage that sustains elastic stress. But, the system would subsequently relax because particles jiggle and slide. By employing the complete continuum mechanical theory, also known as Granular Solid Hydrodynamics (GSH), the elastic energy ...

The Measurement of Residual Strength in Triaxial Compression

Géotechnique, 1966
Synopsis The triaxial compression of soil samples with preformed shear plances involves difficulties in the estimation of the effects of the change in the crosssectional area and effects of the change in the crosssecitional area and the restraint of the rubber membrane.

An alternative to the conventional triaxial compression test

Powder Technology, 2006
Abstract A new test for measurement of the mechanical properties of granular powders is proposed, consisting of upsetting the powder inside a metal tube. Varying the tube material as well as its wall thickness allows superimposing of a variable radial pressure.

Experimental Tests of the UHPC in Triaxial Compression

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2013
An experimental study of the ultra high performance concrete (UHPC) subjected to triaxial compression is presented in this paper. The examined ultra high performance concrete was developed at the Faculty of Civil Engineering at CTU in Prague from the components locally available in the Czech Republic without using any special mixing technique or curing

Homogeneous and layered sand in triaxial compression

Géotechnique, 1975
Samples of Ham River sand were prepared at high and low porosities by pouring through air or a liquid, the techniques being alternated for layered samples. Some samples were reinforced with horizontal sheets of various materials. To avoid edge effects near lubricated platens in triaxial compression, strains in the middle third of each sample were ...

A triaxial rheometer for soft compressible solids

Journal of Rheology, 2002
The novel instrument measures the response to compression and shear of a class of materials we call soft compressible solids, examples of which are textile solids and foams. The sample is fixed between two parallel plates, and deformation is controlled by an x,y,z displacement on one plate while the stress is measured on the other.
