Continuous drainage boundary is widely accepted to overcome the shortcoming of the
traditional assumption of fully permeable or impermeable drainage boundary in …

This paper presents analytical solutions for one-dimensional nonlinear consolidation of
saturated multi-layered soil under time-dependent loading. Analytical solutions are derived …

This paper presents an analytical solution for one-dimensional nonlinear consolidation of a
saturated clay layer with variable compressibility and permeability under various cyclic …

The fluctuation of temperature leads to the changes of physical‐mechanical properties of
clayey soils. In some practical projects such as landfills, the compacted clay liner is usually …

By incorporating the nonlinear variation of a soil's compressibility and permeability during
the process of consolidation, an analytical solution for the radial consolidation of vertical …

Temperature changes affect the nonlinear consolidation process in soils, and there is limited
associated theoretical research. In this study, the governing equations for nonlinear …

This paper aims in understanding the impact of the cyclic load on the one-dimensional
consolidation of soft clays subjected to non-Darcian fluid flow. Three different cyclic …

A surcharge preloading method with time-dependent loading is widely used for accelerating
the consolidation process of soft soils, and different loading patterns have a great effect on …

Based on the double nonlinear consolidation constitutive associated with the compression
and permeability coefficients, presented by Mesri and Rokhsar (1974), this paper derives an …

By introducing the exponentially time‐growing drainage boundary, this paper investigated
the one‐dimensional consolidation problem of soil under a ramp load. Firstly, the one …
