Abstract: Predicting the behavior of a saturated rock with variations in pore fluid pressure during geoenergy production and storage, deep geological disposal of nuclear wastes, etc. with skeletal mechanical behavior in the linear ...

Abstract: Predicting the behavior of a saturated rock with variations in pore fluid pressure during geo-energy production and storage, deep geological disposal of nuclear wastes, etc. with skeletal mechanical behavior in the linear ...

Abstract: This paper presents a bounding surface plasticity model that can be used to simulate complex monotonic and cyclic loading paths. A new mapping rule that only uses the last stress reversal point is introduced to describe ...

Abstract: The consolidation of soils is important to geotechnical engineering practice, such as when assessing the rate of settlement of shallow foundations, embankments, and landfills. In this paper, numerical analyses are performed ...

Abstract: In this study, results of plate load tests performed on saturated and unsaturated silty sand samples are presented. Very little is known about how to interpret the plate load test when performed on unsaturated soils ...
