Undrained Shear Strength of Remoulded Marine Clays
ABSTRACT In order to investigate the change in undrained shear strength characteristics corresponding to the change in the test condition and soil type, four different types of consolidated undrained triaxial tests were performed on some natural marine clays in Japan, and the test result was compared with that previously obtained for artificially ...

Triaxial compression tests on a crushable sand in dry and wet conditions [PDF]
A calcareous sand from the Persian Gulf is subjected to a series of dry and fully drained saturated triaxial shear tests. The samples are prepared at relative densities of 65% and either left dry or saturated. They are consolidated to confining pressures

Stress dependent thermal pressurization of a fluid-saturated rock [PDF]
Temperature increase in saturated porous materials under undrained conditions leads to thermal pressurization of the pore fluid due to the discrepancy between the thermal expansion coefficients of the pore fluid and of the solid matrix.

Investigation into the effect of uncertainty of CPT-based soil type estimation on the accuracy of CPT-based pile bearing capacity analysis [PDF]
Cone Penetration Test (CPT or CPTu) is commonly used for estimating soil types and also for the geotechnical design of pile foundation. However, the level of agreement between the CPT-based soil types and the traditional identification of soil types ...

Critical undrained shear strength of sand-silt mixtures under monotonic loading
This study uses experimental triaxial tests with monotonic loading to develop empirical relationships to estimate undrained critical shear strength. The effect of the fines content on undrained shear strength is analyzed for different density states. The

Correlation of undrained shear strength and CPT resistance
The correlation of CPT resistance and undrained shear strength of soft Holocene clays is discussed in this paper. This soil type, covering significant part of Hungary is frequently involved in different geotechnical engineering problems such as building of highway embankments.
