Unified Solution to Drained Expansion of a Spherical Cavity in Clay and Sand
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a novel unified solution to drained expansion of a spherical cavity in both clay and sand. The large-strain theory and a critical state model with a unified hardening parameter are used to describe the ...
Analysis of Time-Dependent Bearing Capacity of a Driven Pile in Clayey Soils by Total Stress Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes an analytical approach to evaluate the time-dependent bearing capacity of a driven pile in clayey soils by taking the pile installation and subsequent reconsolidation effects into consideration. The ...
Influence of Suction History on Hydraulic and Stress-Strain Behavior of Unsaturated Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An experimental study was performed to investigate the effects of suction history on the hydraulic and stress-strain behavior of unsaturated soils. Test results show that, even if the same path of net stress and suction ...
Analysis of Undrained Cylindrical Cavity Expansion Considering Three-Dimensional Strength of Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Undrained cylindrical cavity-expansion solutions that were based on the modified Cam-clay model have been widely used to predict and interpret geotechnical problems, such as pile installation, and in pressuremeter tests ...
Semi-Analytical Solution to One-Dimensional Consolidation for Unsaturated Soils with Exponentially Time-Growing Drainage Boundary Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a semi-analytical solution to Fredlund and Hasan’s one-dimensional consolidation for unsaturated soils subjected to exponentially time-growing drainage-boundary conditions. Two variables are introduced ...
Predicting Shear Strength of Unsaturated Soils over Wide Suction Range
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Unsaturated soils over a wide suction range are widespread in nature. The shear strength of unsaturated soils is a fundamental property in various geotechnical designs. In this paper, a systematic study was conducted to ...
Semianalytical Solutions to the Consolidation of Drainage Well Foundations in Unsaturated Soils with Radial Semipermeable Drainage Boundary under Time-Dependent Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper presents semianalytical solutions to the consolidation of drainage well foundations in unsaturated soils with radial semipermeable drainage boundary subjected to time-dependent loading, and radial boundary ...
Theoretical and Numerical Analyses on Hydro–Thermal–Salt–Mechanical Interaction of Unsaturated Salinized Soil Subjected to Typical Unidirectional Freezing Process
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The freezing process of salinized soil is a complex, dynamic, and interactive hydro–thermal–salt–mechanical (HTSM) coupled physical phenomenon. In many recent studies, soil was assumed to be saturated, and the theoretical ...
Analytical Solution to Cylindrical Cavity Expansion in Mohr–Coulomb Soils Subject to Biaxial Stress Condition
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this paper, a semianalytical approach is presented to formulate an excavated cavity in Mohr–Coulomb soils subject to biaxial initial stresses. The response of cavity expansion within the plastic region was investigated ...
Stability of Unsaturated Soil Slopes with Cracks under Steady-Infiltration Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Most classical approaches for evaluating the stability of soil slopes with tension cracks are performed under dry and/or saturated conditions. The suction-induced effect of unsaturated soils is generally neglected in ...
