Mineral and Organic Matter Characterization of Density Fractions of Basalt- and Granite-Derived Soils in Montane California

Shearing Strength of Soils

b = a length L c = the cohesion intercept M L T Ip = the plasticity index P = a force M L T u = the pore fluid pressure ML T θ = an angle Angle μ1 = shear strength reduction factor related to time effects μ2 = shear strength reduction factor related to fissuring σ = the normal stress on a plane M L T τ = the shearing stress on a plane M L T φ = the angle of internal friction Angle ψ = an angle ...

Biological and geochemical controls on phosphorus fractions in semiarid soils

This study examined the concentration of organic and inorganic phosphorus in surface soils of a Bouteloua gracilis-Bouteloua eriopoda grassland, and a Larrea tridentata shrubland, in the northern Chihuahuan Desert, New Mexico, USA. In this desert where the grassland vegetation has a uniform spatial distribution and individual shrubs have a patchy spatial distribution across the landscape, veget...

Investigation of Shear Strength Anisotropy of c- &phi Soils

Cohesive-frictional soils are widely used in the construction of embankment structures and due to the method of construction, i.e. applying compactive efforts in the vertical direction in these cases, the occurrence of anisotropy in the soil strength and permeability seems to be inevitable. In this study, attempts have been made to evaluate the shear strength of c-f soils through modifying a l...
