A modified two-surface critical state plasticity model for saturated and unsaturated soil is
presented in this study. The key modification in new model is inclusion of an alternative yield …

A series of strain-controlled cyclic triaxial tests were conducted to estimate the dynamic
properties and the cyclic behaviour of partially saturated synthetic fine-and medium-grained …

The construction of most geo-structures like earthfill dams, roads, highways, embankments,
and airport runways deals with the compaction of unsaturated soils under anisotropic …

Lateritic clay has distinct properties from other clays due to its high sesquioxide content. Its
stiffness characteristics have not been well understood, especially when the soil is …

The shear modulus (G) in sands changes when subjected to variations in the degree of
saturation. The matric suction in unsaturated sands increase the effective stress and …

Abstract The Dynamic Hollow Cylinder Apparatus (DHCA) is renowned for its ability to
subject soil samples to various cyclic stress paths, allowing for the investigation of the …

This research investigates the influence of matric suction on the variation of shear modulus
and damping ratio of a silty soil in very small to medium shear strain levels. A set of …

The soil water retention curve (SWRC) provides information for a wide range of
geoenvironmental problems, such as analyses of transient two-phase flow, the bearing …

Введение. При кратковременном воздействии статической нагрузки, а также
динамической нагрузки, в условиях отсутствия дренажа, следует учитывать …

Water retention curve of fine-grained soils is a consequence of interaction between
immiscible pore fluids and soil constituents under different water potential. The presence of …
