Abstract: This study examines the load-deformation response of sands subjected to high- and low-stress cycles, i.e., both ends of the Wöhler’s fatigue curve. At high peak cyclic stress σf, the terminal void ratio decreases with ...

Abstract: Adequate knowledge of the in situ state of stress can be essential to the analysis of geotechnical systems. However, the measurement and prediction of

Abstract: The 75-μm particle size is used to discriminate between fine and coarse grains. Further analysis of fine grains is typically based on the plasticity chart. Whereas pore-fluid-chemistry-dependent soil response is a salient ...

Abstract: Various laboratory and field techniques used to study geomaterials utilize the principles of electromagnetism. Applications in geotechnical engineering such as resistivity profiling, induced polarization, ground-penetrating ...

Abstract: Soft sediments are frequently encountered in geotechnical practice, forming natural deposits or manmade mixtures. These high water content soil–water mixtures involve soils with high specific surface and experience relatively ...

Abstract: Soils often experience repetitive changes in pore water pressure. This study explores the volumetric and shear response of contractive and dilative sand specimens subjected to repetitive changes in pore water pressure, ...
