Strength of Sands in Wedge Shear, Triaxial Shear, and Shear Box Tests

open access: yesGeotechnical Testing Journal, 2007
Abstract Limited tests had indicated peak drained values of angle of internal friction Φ of gravelly sands measured in the cylindrical wedge shear test (cylwest) to be relatively closer to the Φ expected from plane strain tests than from triaxial tests.

Triaxial shear testing of polished slickensided surfaces

Landslides, 2011
A series of consolidated-drained triaxial tests were performed on precut and polished clay specimens to measure their drained residual strength. Two soils were tested during this research program: Rancho Solano Clay and San Francisco Bay Mud. Specimens were tested using a specially modified triaxial compression device which was developed to minimize ...

Analysis of Shear Banding in True Triaxial Tests on Sand

Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 2001
A series of true triaxial tests have been performed on rectangular prismatic specimens of Santa Monica Beach sand at three different relative densities to study the occurrence of failure, mechanism...

Modified Triaxial Apparatus for Shearing-Infiltration Test

Geotechnical Testing Journal, 2001
Abstract A triaxial apparatus was modified and developed for performing shearing-infiltration tests under saturated and unsaturated conditions. Miniature pore-water pressure transducers were installed at different heights of the soil specimen for pore-water pressure measurement.

Behavior of an MBT waste in monotonic triaxial shear tests

Waste Management, 2013
Legislation in some parts of the world now requires municipal solid waste (MSW) to be processed prior to landfilling to reduce its biodegradability and hence its polluting potential through leachate and fugitive emission of greenhouse gases. This pre-processing may be achieved through what is generically termed mechanical-biological-treatment (MBT ...

Stress-strain States Differences in Specimens during Triaxial Compression and Direct Shear Tests [PDF]

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2017
This article compares the soil strength parameters obtained from data of triaxial compression and direct shear tests, both with dense samples of fine sand.
