Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Retaining walls are key geotechnical components of road infrastructure, whose seismic performance directly affects the resilience of transportation networks. Despite their importance, seismic fragility models for retaining walls available in the literature refer only to specific case studies.

A Review of Undrained Strength in Direct Simple Shear
Soils and Foundations, 1985 ABSTRACT Normalized undrained shear strengths from direct simple shear (DSS) tests conducted on 50 different clays are compared with strengths determined from triaxial shear tests. The DSS strength is typically observed to be an intermediate strength between triaxial compression and extension.

Increase in Undrained Shear Strength Due to Secondary Compression
Soils and Foundations, 1983 Undrained shear strength of clay is generally increased due to secondary compression or delayed compression. Though this increased strength is regarded as being derived from densification of clay particles and the metamorphosis of clay minerals and dissolution of cemented matters into free water, the mechanism of increase in strength during long term ...

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.The cononsolvency of poly(dimethyl acrylamide‐co‐hydroxyethyl acrylamide) copolymers in water‐acetonitrile mixtures enables the synthesis of hydrogels with finely tuned porosity. Optimized for droplet‐based microfluidics, this approach facilitates the fabrication of porous microgels with tunable mechanical and diffusion properties, offering precise ...

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In this paper, the dependencies of granular soil behaviour on particle crushing and fabric anisotropy are formulated within a novel model based on bounding surface plasticity theory enriched by the non‐stationary critical state line (NCSL) concept.

Hypoplastic Model for Unsaturated Soils With Degree of Saturation Dependent Stiffness
International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper presents an enhanced hydro‐mechanically coupled hypoplastic constitutive model for unsaturated soils, developed by extending an existing framework, with particular emphasis on improving the stiffness formulation to better capture the influence of the degree of saturation. The existing framework links Bishop's effective stress to the

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.Abstract Ground deformation of dormant volcanoes provides critical insights into subsurface processes and potential hazards. Here we present Sentinel‐1 Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) time series (2015–2020) for Changbaishan volcano, the largest intraplate volcanic system in East Asia. We detect persistent subsidence of up to 3.5 mm/yr

Undrained Shear Strength of Overconsolidated Clay
, 2022 It has been known for a long time now that in soft and sensitive clays undrained failure occurs apparently before the full friction angle has been mobilized. The main object of this paper is to clarify the importance of deformations in the process of mobilizing undrained shear strength.

Undrained Cyclic Shear Strength of a Dense Niigata Sand
Soils and Foundations, 1984 ABSTRACT A large continuous sample of a saturated sand to a depth of about 10 m was successfully obtained in Niigata, Japan, by means of an in situ freezing method, and so-called undisturbed samples of the sand were obtained by a conventional triple-tube sampler.
