Abstract It was fairly accepted to interpret soil behaviour at the microstructural level by utilising effective degree of saturation instead total in stress equation for unsaturated fine-grained soils. However, this interpretation pure sands under-represented literature. On basis shear strength evolution with suction, paper reports a series experimental tests evaluate use fine sands. The compri...

Abstract Theoretical analyses using a rate‐ and state‐dependent friction law have shown quasistatic stable slip behaviors following velocity weakening. We estimated spatiotemporal distributions for six slow events (SSEs) off the Boso Peninsula, Japan, from Global Navigation Satellite System data plotted their shear stress variations vs. velocity, here called “trajectories.” Most trajectories ar...
