We review the experimental synthesis of smooth and rough particles, characterization of
surface roughness, quantification of the pairwise and bulk friction coefficients, and their …

A state-of-the-art review was delivered in the manuscript to analyze the current situations
and the advantages/disadvantages of resilient deformation related issues to the unbound …

The effect of gravel contents on the cyclic and post-cyclic monotonic simple shear behavior
of gravelly soils during seismic events has significant implications for civil infrastructure …

In the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake, liquefaction of gravelly soils from reclaimed fills occurred
in CentrePort, Wellington, New Zealand. This study presents constant volume monotonic …

Excess pore pressure generation of uniform gravel and gravel-sand mixtures was evaluated
in this study. Comparisons were made with existing relationships for pore pressure …

The factors and mechanisms controlling the accumulation of shear strains of clean uniform
sands exhibiting cyclic mobility behavior under level-ground conditions are examined. This …

The direct simple shear (DSS) test is commonly used to assess the shear strength of soil,
estimate liquefaction resistance, or calibrate constitutive models under the assumption of …

While cyclic triaxial (CTX) tests are widely used in liquefaction studies due to their simplicity,
direct simple shear (DSS) tests and their ilk (eg, the combined triaxial simple shear, T x SS) …

Understanding the factors that affect the monotonic and cyclic response of gravelly soils
during earthquake events is critical to infrastructure design. In this study a large-size Cyclic …

Small‐strain shear modulus, Gmax, is a key evaluation index to study the dynamic
characteristics of soil in geotechnical engineering. It is widely adopted to evaluate the …
