Abstract: The effects of phase shift (δ) between compression and shear waves, and consolidation stress ratio (Kc) on the liquefaction resistance of sand under simultaneous compression and shear wave loading is investigated using a ...

Abstract: An experimental study aimed at providing insights into the effects of the inclination of principal stress directions with respect to the bedding plane and the role of principal stress rotation on the cyclic resistance of ...

Abstract: Anisotropic characteristics of granular soil consolidated to various initial stress states were evaluated under generalized strain paths using hollow cylinder torsional shear tests. Fraser River sand samples prepared by ...

Abstract: The effects of the initial orientation of principal stress axes and subsequent rotation of principal stresses on liquefaction susceptibility of sands were investigated. Monotonic and cyclic hollow cylinder torsional shear ...
