A Simplified Model Describing the Cyclic Behavior of Lightly Overconsolidated Clays in Simple Shear
The geological profile of submerged slopes of the continental shelf typically consists of normally to lightly overconsolidated clays with depths ranging from a few meters to a few hundred meters and very low slope angles. The stability of these slopes is often investigated with pseudo-static methods by reducing the dynamic loading to an equivalent inertial force. The simplifications are such th...
متن کاملShearing of fibrillar adhesive microstructure: friction and shear-related changes in pull-off force.
To characterize the effect of shearing on function of fibrillar adhesive microstructure, friction and shear-related changes in pull-off force of a biomimetic polyvinylsiloxane mushroom-shaped fibrillar adhesive microstructure were studied. In contrast to a control flat surface, which exhibited pronounced stick-slip motion accompanied with high friction, the fibrillar microstructure demonstrated...
متن کاملEffects of Particle Shape and Microstructure on Strength and Dilatancy During a Numerical Direct Shear Test
ABSTRACT: Discrete element method offers insights into the soil behaviour at the microscopic level. In this investigation, a series of numerical direct shear tests is carried out by a three-dimensional discrete element code PFC. The size of the shear box is 6 cm long, 3 cm wide and 4 cm high. Non-spherical shaped particles are created by joining primary constitutive spherical balls together wit...
متن کاملPermeability and Direct Shear Tests Characteristics of Railway Subballast
Permeability, filtration and shearing strength were widely considered to be the key properties in evaluating the performance of railway subballast. An investigation on these key properties of railway subballast was presented in this paper. A constant head permeability test and a middle scale direct shear test of railway subballast were conducted in the research, aiming to investigate the subbal...
متن کاملStudies on Dynamic Character of Saturated Soft Clays through Cyclic Torsion Shear Tests
A large number of cyclic torsional shear tests on saturated soft clay under unconsolidated undrained condition have been carried out. The changing law between accumulative generalized shear strains vs. failure numbers has been analyzed and a cyclic shear strength curve has been received based on cyclic torsional shear tests. According to the test results, the criterion of saturated soft clay is...
