Dynamic strength of fly ash-modified loess subgrade under influences of drying-wetting cycle
The traffic load and the drying-wetting cycle have an important influence on the strength characteristics and stability of fly ash-modified loess subgrade. To illustrate the influences of drying-wetting cycle on the strength of the fly ash-modified loess,

Wetting of coarse-grained soil under equal stress ratio path
The wetting tests of coarse-grained soil under the equal stress ratio path are performed using the basalt rockfill of Gushui concrete face rockfill dam. The tests results show that the wetting deformation of soil under equal stress ratio path is affected

Experimental deformation of synthetic wet jadeite aggregates [PDF]
Predictions on interplate coupling and shear heating in the deeper levels of subduction zones require an understanding of the rheology of eclogite. The strength of eclogite is probably limited by the flow strength of its major constituent omphacite, representing a solid solution between the clinopyroxene end‐members diopside and jadeite. Here we report

Modeling the soil–water retention curves while the soil is deforming
A porous-solid model based on the grain and pore size distributions of the soil is coupled with a mechanical model to simulate the soil–water retention curves while the material is deforming. During the determination of the main drying curve, the soil is
