True Triaxial Apparatuses with Two Rigid Boundaries
Site Characterization and Modeling, 2005A small-scale and a large-scale true triaxial apparatuses (where σ1≠σ2≠σ3) were recently developed at the Institute of Industrial Science, University of Tokyo, Japan and are described in this paper. In these apparatuses, a comprehensive loading system that can control both strain rate and stress rate is used for the vertical (axial) direction.

True Triaxial Tests on Natural Shanghai Clay
2018Drained true triaxial tests on undisturbed and remolded Shanghai silty clay were carried out to investigate the influence of intermediate principle stress on the strength and deformation of natural clay. Test results show that not only the shear strength, but also the volume change of Shanghai clay decreases with the increase of Lode angle θ. The shear

A rock test cell with true triaxial capability
Geotechnical & Geological Engineering, 1999Conventional so-called triaxial test cells apply the axial stress to a cylindrical sample using steel platens, with the confining stress developed via an annulus of hydraulic fluid retained by a liner in a pressure cell. This does not allow differentiation between the two principal stresses around the core and inhibits the realism with which the rocks ...

DEM simulations of sandstone under true triaxial compressive tests
Acta Geotechnica, 2016Numerically simulated true triaxial compression tests (σ 1 ≥ σ 2 ≥ σ 3) are conducted in this study to elucidate the failure mechanism of sandstone using 3D discrete element method (DEM), in particular the effect of the intermediate principal stress (σ 2 ...

Canadian Geotechnical Journal, 2015
In this work, a constitutive model that predicts the mechanical behaviour of Opalinus clay is developed. The model is based on the theory of plasticity, and takes into consideration the inherent anisotropy due to the existence of bedding planes, hardening behaviour before the peak strength, softening behaviour after the peak, and creep effects.

A True Triaxial Cell for Soil and Rock
1988The design and performance of a membrane-piston, high-pressure (σ2 − σ3 ≦ 300 MN/m2) cell are presented. This device is similar to the one used for standard triaxial tests differing only in the stresses, σ2 and σ3, which are independently applied through flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) fluid cushions on prismatic specimens.

True Triaxial Stresses and the Brittle Fracture of Rock
Pure and Applied Geophysics, 2006This paper reviews the efforts made in the last 100 years to characterize the effect of the intermediate principal stress σ2 on brittle fracture of rocks, and on their strength criteria. The most common theories of failure in geomechanics, such as those of Coulomb, and Mohr, disregard σ2 and are typically based on triaxial testing of cylindrical rock ...

Development of a True Triaxial Testing Facility for Composite Materials
2000An electromechanical testing facility capable of applying any combination of tensile and/or compressive forces to three mutually orthogonal axes of a thickness-tapered composite cruciform specimen was designed, fabricated, assembled, and evaluated. Any stress ratio in biaxial (σ1 - σ2) or triaxial (σ1 - σ2 - σ3) stress space can be explored using this ...
