Study of the mechanical behaviour of reclaimed asphalt aggregates without binder addition [PDF]
The objective of this paper is to investigate a source of reclaimed asphalt aggregates without binder addition. To this end, a series of triaxial tests was performed. First, monotonic triaxial tests allowed to determine failure resistance of the material

Large-Scale Triaxial Tests on Dilatancy Characteristics of Lean Cemented Sand and Gravel
The dilatancy equation, which describes the plastic strain increment ratio and its dependence on the stress state, is an important component of the elastoplastic constitutive model of geotechnical materials.

Triaxial Testing of Frozen Sand [PDF]
AbstractTriaxial testing of frozen saturated Ottawa sand under confined compression was carried out under hydrostatic pressures varying between 0.1 and 75 MPa at a temperature of -10°C and strain-rate 7.7×10-5s-1. Yield and failure stresses increased with increasing hydrostatic pressures up to about 40 MPa, beyond which the stresses dropped.
