Abstract: This paper describes a theoretical model to capture the rate of erosion of a silty sand based on the principle of conservation of energy. Erosion is considered to begin when the interparticle bonds between grains are broken ...

Abstract: In this paper, a new behavioral (plasticity) model for lignosulfonate (LS)–treated silty sand based on the disturbed state concept is proposed. Here, the relative intact (RI) responses for both the LS-treated and untreated ...
