Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solutions for soil engineering and soil-structure interaction problems need realistic and pertinent experimental and modelling tools. In this work, extensive developments proposed by the invited speakers of the Lyon International Symposium held in September 2003 are presented, including experimental investigations into deformation properties; laboratory, in-situ and field observation interpretations; behaviour characterisation and modelling; and case histories. The contributions include recent investigations into anisotropy and non-linearity, the effects of stress-strain-time history, ageing and time effects, yielding, failure and flow, cyclic and dynamic behaviour. In addition, advanced geotechnical testing is applied to real engineering problems, and to ways of synthesising information from a range of sources while engaging in practical site characterisation studies.

Download or read book Time Effects on the Stress Strain Properties of Clay Consolidated in the Laboratory written by Roland Pusch and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Samples of natural, undisturbed as well as artificially produced clays were consolidated under a pressure corresponding to the double consolidation pressure and were then left to rest under a reduced pressure and drained conditions. After various periods of rest, the samples were sheared under undrained conditions and it was observed that the strain at failure decreased and that the shear modulus increased with the time lapsed. This can be explained in terms of a shift of the energy spectrum to higher barrier values, the most probable physical equivalent being an improved number and strength of re-formed particle bonds, primarily of the clay/water-complex type.

Download or read book Correlations of Soil and Rock Properties in Geotechnical Engineering written by Jay Ameratunga and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-12-11 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a one-stop reference to the empirical correlations used extensively in geotechnical engineering. Empirical correlations play a key role in geotechnical engineering designs and analysis. Laboratory and in situ testing of soils can add significant cost to a civil engineering project. By using appropriate empirical correlations, it is possible to derive many design parameters, thus limiting our reliance on these soil tests. The authors have decades of experience in geotechnical engineering, as professional engineers or researchers. The objective of this book is to present a critical evaluation of a wide range of empirical correlations reported in the literature, along with typical values of soil parameters, in the light of their experience and knowledge. This book will be a one-stop-shop for the practising professionals, geotechnical researchers and academics looking for specific correlations for estimating certain geotechnical parameters. The empirical correlations in the forms of equations and charts and typical values are collated from extensive literature review, and from the authors' database.

This book was released on 2007-11-28 with total page 989 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The material in this work is focused on recent developments in research into the stress-strain behavior of geomaterials, with an emphasis on laboratory measurements, soil constitutive modeling and behavior of soil structures (such as reinforced soils, piles and slopes). The latest advancements in the field, such as the rate effect and dynamic behavior of both clay and sand, behavior of modified soils and soil mixtures, and soil liquefaction are addressed.

Download or read book Deformation Characteristics of Geomaterials written by C.-K. Chung and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 1382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the international edition of the proceedings of IS-Seoul 2011, the Fifth International Symposium on Deformation Characteristics of Geomaterials, held in Seoul, South Korea, in September 2011.The book includes 7 invited lectures, as well as 158 technical papers selected from the 182 submitted. The symposium explored ideas about the complex load-deformation response in geomaterials, including laboratory methods for small and large strains; anisotropy and localization; time-dependent responses in soils; characteristics of treated, unsaturated, and natural geomaterials; applications in field methods; evaluation of field performance in geotechnical structures; and physical and numerical modeling in geomechanics. These topics were grouped under a number of main themes, including experimental investigations from very small strains to beyond failure; behavior, characterization and modeling of various geomaterials; and practical prediction and interpretation of ground response: field observation and case histories. Both the symposium and this book represent an important contribution to the exchange of advanced knowledge and ideas in geotechnical engineering and promote partnership among participants worldwide.
Download or read book Torsional Shear Testing Technique for Dynamic Properties of Clay written by AG. Franklin and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The testing technique and apparatus described herein implement the determination of dynamic stress-strain-time properties of clay soils over several decades of the frequency spectrum, including the normal frequency range of most earthquakes. The basic device used for these tests is the Weissenberg rheogoniometer, with some modifications to enhance its adaptability to testing soils. The soft clay test specimens are held in a cone-and-plate sample holder, while a hollow cylinder geometry is more suitable for stiff clay specimens. These geometries satisfy reasonably well the desirable condition that stresses and strains be homogeneous within the test specimen, and they allow tests to be conducted over a wide range of moisture contents. The specimens are subjected to oscillatory torsional shear deformations, and the moment response is measured; with the use of the specimen geometry and the homogeneity of stress and strain, these deformations and forces are readily converted to shear stresses and shear strains. In addition to the magnitudes of stress and strain, the time difference between corresponding points on the stress and strain curves is measured, allowing computation of a phase angle between stress and strain. Two types of oscillatory tests are particularly convenient to perform in this apparatus; in one case, the frequency is maintained constant while the deformation amplitude is varied, while in the other case, deformation amplitude is held constant and frequency is varied. Data obtained by this technique allow the evaluation of several aspects of the dynamic clay behavior, such as the effect of stress history, the degree of nonlinearity in the stress-strain response, and the extent to which presently available theories, such as linear viscoelasticity, can be used to interpret the mechanical behavior. For example, the energy dissipated in a unit volume of the sample over a single cycle of deformation can be calculated by using the phase angle and the stress and strain amplitudes; alternatively, this dissipated energy can be measured directly by means of a hysteresis loop, and the two values can be compared.
