Effect of different moisture content and triaxial test methods on shear strength characteristics of loess [PDF]
This paper discussed the effect of moisture content on shear strength of loess during different confining pressure firstly. The variation law of deformation parameters, i.e. shear strength and secant modulus is analysed in detail.

Effect of the optimum and residual moisture content on the strength characteristics of unsaturated sands [PDF]
Soil exists mainly in unsaturated conditions. Therefore, accurate prediction of the soil shear strength for unsaturated conditions also becomes equally important for the geotechnical design of earth structures.

Determination of the Internal Friction Angle of Gravel based on the p-q Graph for Direct Shear Tests [PDF]
Since its simplicity and availability, direct shear test is a current one. This test, compared to the triaxial test, provides different values for the parameters of the gravel due to the specific shape of the test device and the test approach.

Effect of the Particle Size on TDA Shear Strength Parameters in Triaxial Tests [PDF]
Tire recycling and reuse in North America and worldwide have increased considerably, intending to reduce the harmful effects of scrap tires on the environment. Accordingly, the use of tire derived aggregates (TDA) as backfill material in civil engineering applications is on the rise at an unprecedented rate.
