Abstract: Long-term monitoring of the behavior of ground anchors constitutes an important aspect of the stability of structures reinforced by such structural members. The present paper describes full-scale tests performed on three ...

Abstract: This paper examines the potential influence of particle-size distribution on stress-dilatancy behavior of granular materials from the results of 35 conventional drained triaxial compression tests. Seven different grain-size ...

Abstract: Although much has been discussed on the liquefaction phenomenon and cyclic behavior of saturated sands, relatively little has been clarified on the difference between their cyclic behavior under simple and triaxial shear ...
