AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.Abstract Following an earthquake, faults lock and regain strength via a combination of healing mechanisms that include pressure solution, contact growth, and cementation. Fault healing dictates strength recovery during the seismic cycle and is therefore a key factor controlling earthquake recurrence intervals, stress drop, and other source properties ...

SN Applied Sciences, 2021 Undrained shear strength plays a fundamental role on the behaviour of clays. In overconsolidated clays, this parameter is largely influenced by test conditions, namely consolidation stress.

Twin-tunnelling-induced changes to clay stiffness [PDF]
, 2018 With urban tunnel construction growing worldwide, the ability to accurately predict the ground and structural response to tunnelling and the associated risks is now more important than ever before. Engineers are expected to consider all aspects of tunnel

Correlation of the Undrained Shear Strength
Nigerian Journal of Technology, 2012 This paper attempts to establish a relationship between the undrained strength and plasticity index of tropical clays. Its theoretical basis lies with the previous works of Skempton and Northey [1] and Atkinson and Bransby [2]. The data obtained from independent laboratory tests on so some clay samples sourced from several actual project locations in ...

Numerical Investigation of Bored Tunnelling Effects on Pile‐Supported Superstructures
International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 7, Page 3155-3173, May 2026.ABSTRACT Tunnelling in urban environments can significantly affect existing buried structures such as pile foundations. However, the current understanding of how tunnelling‐induced ground movements influence the stability and serviceability of piles remains limited. This knowledge gap presents potential risks that must be addressed during tunnel design

Undrained shear strength of the heavily consolidated clay
Annals of Warsaw University of Life Sciences - SGGW. Land Reclamation, 2013 Abstract Undrained shear strength of the heavily consolidated clay. The undrained shear strength (cu) is considered one of the most basic parameter characterizing soils in engineering practice. The particular importance of cu is in the case of clayey soil. This parameter also is the basis for the classification of soil according to the ISO standard.

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Sediments on Arctic continental shelves are impacted by sea ice and ice‐related processes for up to 9 months per year. As a result, seabed morphology in cold regions can exhibit features such as ice scours which are absent on lower‐latitude shelves.
