A Hyperbolic Model for Stress-strain Behavior of Unsaturated Soils
A new simple shear apparatus is fabricated which is capable of applying monotonic and cyclic load on soil specimens. A series of tests was conducted to study the pore pressures (or suction), volume change, and shear behavior of the soil samples with anisotropic consolidation pressure. The simple shear apparatus is capable of controlling as well as measuring pore-air and pore-water pressure in t...
متن کاملA variational Cam-clay theory of plasticity
We present a finite deformation constitutive theory for non-cohesive granular media. The material model falls in the family of the so-called Cam-clay theories. As typical of Cam-clay models, soil is assumed to be frictional with a logarithmic-type compression. The same state boundary surface––described by ellipses––is taken as yield and plastic potential surface. Hardening is related only to pl...
متن کاملExtending a two-variable mean to a multi-variable mean
We consider the problem of extending any two-variable mean M(·, ·) to a multi-variable mean, using no other tool than M(·, ·) itself. Pálfia proposed an iterative procedure that consists in evaluating successively two-variable means according to a cyclic pattern. We propose here a variant of his procedure to improve the convergence speed. Our approach consists in re-ordering the iterates after ...
متن کاملPrediction of spatially variable unsaturated hydraulic conductivity using scaled particlesize distribution functions
[1] Simultaneous scaling of soil water retention and hydraulic conductivity functions provides an effective means to characterize the heterogeneity and spatial variability of soil hydraulic properties in a given study area. The statistical significance of this approach largely depends on the number of soil samples collected. Unfortunately, direct measurement of the soil hydraulic functions is t...
متن کاملSiOC glass modified by montmorillonite clay
The addition of inexpensive montmorillonite clay to a silicone resin employed as preceramic polymer was found to be advantageous for the production of SiOC glass matrix composites. Dense SiOC based monoliths were achieved with the addition of a substantial amount of calcined clay (30 wt.%) to the preceramic polymer; these composites exhibited remarkable hardness and fracture toughness, higher t...
