When occurred on site static or flow type liquefaction could result in catastrophic
consequences due to its sudden occurrence with large strains. Presented here is an …

This paper focuses on developing a simple approach to describing the monotonic and cyclic
behavior of sands with fines by employing the concept of equivalent intergranular void ratio …

This paper presents a detailed study focused on investigating the effects of fines content on
the engineering properties of sand-fines mixtures. Specimens with a low-plastic fines …

So far, many studies have been completed on the traditional soil stabilisation using cement
or lime, however, very limited literatures pay attention to the mechanical behavior of …

State parameter, ψ, has been widely used to combine the influence of void ratio, e, and
stress level, p′, on the soils behavior. Stress ratio, R s, and modified state parameter, ψ m …

This paper presents a detailed study focused on investigating the effects of silt content on
the static and dynamic properties of sand-silt mixtures. Specimens with a low-plastic silt …

Most natural sandy deposits contain low amounts of fine content (< 10%), which is usually
anisotropic and characterized by complex microstructures. The present study investigates …

The factors affecting the small-strain shear modulus of sand–silt mixture in the saturated or
dry state have been studied in the last two decades. The present work investigated the effect …

This thesis investigates the effect of two by-product binders consisted of ground granulated
blast furnace slag (GGBFS), and flyash (FA) on liquefaction resistance of soil by performing …

The undrained shear behaviour of sand-silt mixture is studied in the loose state using triaxial
test. To this end, besides common physical tests, samples were prepared with silt contents …
