Theoretical Undrained Shear Behaviour of Unsaturated Soils

Prediction method for undrained shear behaviour of unsaturated soils is discussed in this paper. Based on Original Cam Clay model, authors have proposed constitutive model for unsaturated soils that the effect of water content is incorporated into superloading surface concept. Firstly, stress path of constant volume shear test is formulated under constant void ratio condition. And relationship ...

Shear Stresses in Shock-compressed Covalent Solids

Shear stresses are the driving forces for the creation of both point and extended defects in crystals subjected to high pressures and temperatures. Recently, we observed anomalous elastic materials response in shock-compressed silicon and diamond in the course of our MD simulations and were able to relate this phenomenon to non-monotonic dependence of shear stress on uniaxial compression of the...

undrained triaxial shear behavior of grouted carbonate sands

the effects of cementation and the physical properties of grains on the shear behavior of grouted sands are investigated in this paper. the consolidated-undrained triaxial shear behavior of three grouted carbonate sands with different physical properties, including particle size distribution, particle shape and void ratio, was studied. two sands were obtained from the north shores of the persia...
