Small Strain Stiffness of Fine Grained Soils
Dynamic measurements of very small strain stiffness (c 0.001% and less) were carried out both in the laboratory, using piezoceramic bender elements of the type developed at the Norwegian Ceotechnical Institute and at the University College of North Wales, and in situ, using surface wave techniques. For the purpose of the research described in this dissertation, the piezoceramic bender elements ...
متن کاملLow-strain shear modulus dependence on water content of a natural stiff clay
This paper shows the results of an experimental programme aimed at evaluating the low-strain shear modulus of a stiff clay (Boom clay, Belgium) and its dependency on water content changes (or, alternatively, degree of saturation or suction) and hydraulic history. Resonant column and bender element tests were carried out at different hydraulic states. Drying and wetting paths were followed using...
متن کاملStiffness at small strain: research and practice
This paper provides the background to the 50th Rankine Lecture. It considers the growth in emphasis of the prediction of ground displacements during design in the past two decades of the 20th century, as a result of the lessons learnt from field observations. The historical development of the theory of elasticity is then described, as are the constitutive frameworks within which it has been pro...
متن کاملSmall Strain Stiffness of Unsaturated Sands Containing a Polyacrylamide Solution
Sand improvements using organic agents have shown promising results. Polyacrylamide is one possible organic agent, which has been shown to influence the shear strength, stiffness, soil remediation, and erosion resistance of geomaterials. In this study, we explored the shear wave velocity (S-wave) and water retention curves of unsaturated sands containing polyacrylamide solutions. The shear wave...
