Cyclic Undrained Triaxial and Torsional Shear Strength of Sands for Different Sample Preparation Methods

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...

Shear Strength of Fiber-Reinforced Clayey Sands

Consolidated-drained triaxial compression tests were conducted to compare the stress-strain and volume change response of sands and clayey sands reinforced with discrete randomly distributed poly-propylene fibers. The influence of various test parameters such as fiber content (0.0%, 0.5% and 1.0% by weight), clay content (0%, 10% and 20% by weight), relative density (50% and 90%) and confining ...

development of different optical methods for determination of glucose using cadmium telluride quantum dots and silver nanoparticles

a simple, rapid and low-cost scanner spectroscopy method for the glucose determination by utilizing glucose oxidase and cdte/tga quantum dots as chromoionophore has been described. the detection was based on the combination of the glucose enzymatic reaction and the quenching effect of h2o2 on the cdte quantum dots (qds) photoluminescence.in this study glucose was determined by utilizing glucose...

evaluation of undrained shear strength of loose silty sands using cpt results

series of undrained monotonic triaxial tests and cone penetration tests were conducted on loose silty sand samples to study correlation between undrained shear strength of silty sands (sus) and piezocone test results. cpt tests were conducted at 27 silty sand samples in calibration chamber. the results indicate that, in low percent of silt (0-30%), as the silt content increases, the undrained s...
