Statistical Description of Triaxial Shear Test Results

Geotechnical Testing Journal, 1990
Abstract Any probabilistic approach to slope stability assessment requires an adequate statistical description of soil strength. Current statistical methods of strength description are unsuitable for this purpose. A statistical technique of soil strength description appropriate for the probabilistic assessment of slope stability in c′, φ′

A Triaxial-Measurement Shear-Test Device for Soft Biological Tissues

Journal of Biomechanical Engineering, 2000
A novel shear-test device for soft biological tissue, capable of applying simple shear deformations simultaneously in two orthogonal directions while measuring the resulting forces generated in three axes, is described. We validated the device using a synthetic gel, the properties of which were ascertained from independent tensile and rotational shear ...

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 ...
