a new empirical equation for compression behavior of unconsolidated clayey soils
نویسندگان
چکیده
compressibility characteristics of fine-grained soils are often the most important parameters for settlement evaluation of the founded layers. the compression index which is the slope of virgin curve is usually for determination of settlement potential of fine grained soils. in this research, the effects of different physical and index properties of soil samples were investigated on compression index in order to find the most compatible properties and reliable equation based for a wide range of soil samples collected from different sites of iran. for this purpose, one-dimensional consolidation tests were conducted utilizing conventional oedometer test on 26 soil samples at three different levels of void ratio. the compression index of each specimen was determined using data obtained from test results and correlation analysis was made using statistical software, spss. the results showed that the compression index, , has a significant correlation with the most of index properties where its coefficient of correlation with structural properties was strongly greater than those related to inherent properties. therefore the empirical equations which do not consider at least one structural parameter and use only intrinsic properties could not estimate the compression index properly. furthermore a very simple and reliable equation was developed for estimation of the compression index and virgin curve of unconsolidated and normally consolidated fine-grained soils. statistical analysis demonstrated that the proposed relationship predicts the compression index accurately in comparison with the existing relationships.

cyclic behavior of mixed clayey soils
mixed clayey soils occur as mixtures of sand (or gravel) and clay in widely varying proportions. their engineering behavior has not been comprehensively studied yet. an experimental program, comprising monotonic, cyclic, and post-cyclic triaxial tests was undertaken on compacted clay-granular material mixtures, having different proportions of clay and sand or gravel. this paper presents the res...

Shallow earth translational slides and earth flows, affecting colluvial soils derived by the weathering of the clayey bedrock, are a recurrent problem causing damage to buildings and roads in many areas of Apennines. The susceptibility assessment, e.g. slope stability models, requires the preliminary characterization of these superficial covers (lithology, geotechnical and hydraulic parameters)...

A hybrid model for soils, which combines percolation theory and finite element method is presented. The internal soil structure is modelled via the finite element method, and percolation networks are used for analyzing its mechanical behaviour. Through a microscopic characterization of elastic properties of soil grains, the model is generated. The effective percolation threshold obtained is low...
