Abstract: The existence of soil anisotropy makes the strength and deformation of the ground dependent on the loading direction, which should be considered in some geotechnical engineering designs. This paper introduces the anisotropic ...

Abstract: Most clays, either naturally deposited or man-made, possess a certain degree of overconsolidation owing to tamping, cyclic loading, erosion, excavation, and/or changes in groundwater tables. An easy-to-use constitutive ...

Abstract: Weathered granite soils are abundant in China and used extensively as backfill materials. However, there is less systematic research on weathered granite compared with sedimentary types of soils, such as sand and clay. In ...

Abstract: The geotechnical materials formed by natural deposition usually have transverse isotropic properties, and the transverse isotropic properties not only have a direct influence on the deformation of geotechnical materials ...
