Plane Strain Constitutive Equations for Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An attempt is made to clarify certain aspects of the modeling of behavior of particulate materials. The issues are presented in terms of an incremental Hooke's law. The formulation accounts at least partially for the effects ...
Closure to “<i>1‐D Strain in Normally Consolidated Cohesionless Soils</i>” by Bobby O. Hardin (December, 1987, Vol. 113, No. 12)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Low‐Stress Dilation Test
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A new test to measure the low‐stress dilation behavior of cohesionless soils subjected to plane strain has been developed. Very large strains (30–35%) have been applied to sand specimens while approximately maintaining the ...
1‐D Strain in Normally Consolidated Cohesive Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A stress‐strain model for one‐dimensional strain in normally consolidated cohesive soils is compared to test results covering the stress range 0–950 atm. The model is called the “l/e vs.
1‐<i>D</i> Strain in Normally Consolidated Cohesionless Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A stress‐strain model for one‐dimensional strain in normally consolidated cohesionless soils is compared to test results covering the stress range from 0 to 1,300 atmospheres. The model is called the “1/
Crushing of Soil Particles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In order to understand the physics of the strength and stress‐strain behavior of soils and to devise mathematical models that adequately represent such behavior, it is important to define the degree to which the particles ...
Elasticity of Particulate Materials
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Problems associated with isolation, measurement, and modeling the elastic behavior of particulate materials are discussed. Because of pervasive yielding, exclusively elastic behavior of particulate materials is restricted ...
Estimating the Shear Modulus of Gravelly Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A special large-scale torsional resonant column apparatus was used to test gravelly soils. Values of small strain elastic shear modulus
Fracture Toughness of Compacted Cohesive Soils Using Ring Test
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Testing procedures and methods of analysis for determining the fracture toughness of soils using the ring test are described and values of fracture toughness measured for 132 compacted specimens of two cohesive soils are ...
Uniqueness of a Constitutive Shear Modulus Surface for Unsaturated Soils
