One-Dimensional Compression Behavior of a Soil with High Organic Matter Content
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper addresses the one-dimensional compression behavior of a highly organic sapric soil in both its natural intact and reconstituted states, based on the results of constant rate of strain and incremental loading ...
Factors Affecting the Initial Stiffness of Cohesive Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The paper presents the results of an extensive laboratory program conducted to establish the factors affecting the initial stiffness (Young’s modulus) of cohesive soils in undrained triaxial compression. The testing program, ...
Laboratory Simulation of Field Sampling: Comparison With Ideal Sampling and Field Data
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Tube sampling disturbance effects are investigated in this paper based on the results of constant rate of strain consolidation tests and unconsolidated undrained triaxial compression tests conducted on resedimented Boston ...
Small-Strain Nonlinearity of Normally Consolidated Clay
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper addresses the small-strain undrained shear behavior of clays based on an extensive testing program conducted on normally consolidated resedimented Boston blue clay (RBBC). The uniformity and reproducibility in ...
