Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tests were conducted in uniaxial compression and tension to determine the effect of temperature on the strength of frozen Fairbanks silt. Test temperatures ranged from 0 C to -56.7 C. Two machine speeds, 4.23 cm/sec and 0.0423 cm/sec, were used for the constant displacement rate tests. From the highest to the lowest temperature, the compressive strength increased up to about one order of magnitude and the tensile strength increased one-half an order of magnitude. Equations are presented which correlate strength with temperature at the strain rates obtained. The initial tangent and 50% strength moduli and the specific energy are given for each test. The mode of fracture and the effects of unfrozen water content and ice matrix strengthening are discussed, and the test results are compared with the data of other investigations. (Author).

Book excerpt: Constant strain-rate tension tests were conducted on remolded saturated frozen Fairbanks silt at various temperatures, strain rates, and densities. It was found that the critical strain rate of the ductile-brittle transition is not temperature-dependent at temperatures down to -5 C, but varies with density. The peak tensile strength decreases considerable with decreasing strain rate for ductile failure, but it decreases slightly with increasing strain rate for brittle fracture. The failure strain remains almost constant at temperatures lower than about -2 C, but it varies with density and strain rate at -5 C. The initial tangent modulus is independent of strain rate and increases with decreasing temperature and density. Keywords: Frozen mechanics, Frozen soil, Silt, Soil, Strain, Strength.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uniaxial compression and tension tests were conducted on frozen Fairbanks silt at a temperature of -10 C.A relatively stiff testing machine was operated at a constant displacement rate for each test. The tests showed that compressive strength is very sensitive to strain rate and the tensile strength is relatively insensitive to it. The compressive strength increased ten times over a srain rate range of .00012/S to 2.9/s. As was found in other investigations, tangent moduli increased slightly with greater strain rates. The specific eney increased at higher strain rates for compression tests and decreased slightly for tension tests. For increased strain rates, uniaxial compression strength showed no tendency to plateua; nor did the specific energy a minimum during uniaxial tensile testing. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uniaxial constant-stress and constant-strain-rate compression tests were conducted on more than 200 remolded, saturated, frozen specimens of rates show a close strength correspondence between the constant-stress and constant-strain-rate tests. All of these complete stress vs strain rate curves could not be described by a single power law or exponential equation, indicating that different deformation mechanisms are dominant within different ranges of strain rate.

Book excerpt: Unconfined compressive creep strengths and strains were measured for remolded saturated frozen Hanover silt and Suffield clay. The creep tests were conducted at the approximate stress levels of 60, 35, 20 and 5% of the conventional unconfined compressive strength. Testing temperatures were 15, 25, 29 and 31F ( -9.45, -3.89, -1.67 and -0.56C). It was found that the variation of unconfined compression peak strength with temperature can be represented by Sigma sub p = Alpha(Theta/Theta sub 0) to the (0.5) power. Unconfined compression creep strength can be estimated by Vialov's strength equation. Long-term creep strength is less than 45% of unconfined compression strength and can be as low as 10% of this strength. (Modified author abstract).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of geomaterial interfaces recognizes the important influences of the interface behaviour on the performance of interfaces involving cementaceous materials such as concrete and steel, ice-structure interfaces, concrete-rock interfaces and interfaces encountered in soil reinforcement. During the past two decades, the subject of geomaterial interfaces has attracted the concerted attention of scientists and engineers both in geomechanics and applied mechanics. These efforts have been largely due to the observation that the conventional idealizations of the behaviour of interfaces between materials by frictionless contact, bonded contact, Coulomb friction or finite friction tend to omit many interesting and important influences of special relevance to geomaterials. The significant manner in which non-linear effects, dilatancy, contact degradation, hardening and softening, etc., can influence the behaviour of the interface is borne out by experimental evidence. As a result, in many instances, the response of the interface can be the governing criterion in the performance of a geomechanics problem. The primary objective of this volume is to provide a documentation of recent advances in the area of geomaterial interfaces. The volume consists of subject groupings which cover ice-structure, soil-structure and steel-concrete interfaces, mechanics of rock and concrete joints and interfaces in discrete systems.
