undrained triaxial shear behavior of grouted carbonate sands

the effects of cementation and the physical properties of grains on the shear behavior of grouted sands are investigated in this paper. the consolidated-undrained triaxial shear behavior of three grouted carbonate sands with different physical properties, including particle size distribution, particle shape and void ratio, was studied. two sands were obtained from the north shores of the persia...

Evaluation of undrained response from drained triaxial shear tests: DEM simulations and Experiments

A 3 Dimensional Simulation of the Repeated Load Triaxial Test

A typical flexible pavement structure consists of the surface, base, sub-base and subgrade soil. The loading traffic is transferred from the top layer with higher stiffness to the layer below with less stiffness. Under normal traffic loading, the behaviour of flexible pavement is very complex and can be predicted by using the repeated load triaxial test equipment in the laboratory. However, the...

Minimizing Test Execution Time During Test Generation

In the area of model based testing, major improvements have been made in the generation of conformance tests using a model checker. Unfortunately, the execution of the generated test suites tend to be rather time-consuming. In [1] we presented a method to generate the test suites with the shortest execution time providing the required coverage, but this method can only be applied to small model...
