Consolidation Behavior for Saturated Sand–Marine Clay Mixtures Considering the Intergranular Structure Evolution
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Laboratory tests on sand–marine clay mixtures reveal that the effect of sand mass fraction on the overall consolidation behavior is negligible for a sand mass fraction of 20% or less. Further increase of the sand fraction ...
Elastic Visco-Plastic Model for Binary Sand-Clay Mixtures with Applications to One-Dimensional Finite Strain Consolidation Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The pore water dissipation of sand–clay mixtures is significantly affected by the sand fraction due to nonuniform stress distribution. On the basis of the elastic visco-plastic modeling concepts of Yin and Graham, a new ...
Effect of Initial Density, Particle Shape, and Confining Stress on the Critical State Behavior of Weathered Gap-Graded Granular Soils
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Weathered gap-graded soils are a common geological body in mountainous regions, and they are widely used as construction materials. The shear strength is the controlling parameter for the design of civil projects; however, ...
