Abstract: Anisotropy of the soil is responsible for its noncoaxial response. In simple shear and hollow cylindrical torsional shear tests, considerable noncoaxial responses were detected as a result of the stress-induced anisotropy ...

Abstract: Granular materials usually copossess inherent and stress-induced anisotropy that significantly influences their mechanical behaviors. This paper presents a series of true-triaxial tests on aeolian sands to consider the ...

Abstract: Ultra-high-performance fiber reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) exhibits strain hardening and multiple cracking behaviors when subjected to tension load. There are limited studies on the effect of steel fiber aspect ratios on ...
