Theoretical Undrained Shear Behaviour of Unsaturated Soils
Prediction method for undrained shear behaviour of unsaturated soils is discussed in this paper. Based on Original Cam Clay model, authors have proposed constitutive model for unsaturated soils that the effect of water content is incorporated into superloading surface concept. Firstly, stress path of constant volume shear test is formulated under constant void ratio condition. And relationship ...
متن کاملStrength and Deformation Characteristics of Granular Materials under Extremely Low to High Confining Pressures in Triaxial Compression
— The shearing strength and volumetric relationship of granular materials change notably with a variation of confining pressure. In this study the effect confining pressure on the mechanical behavior of granular materials were observed using discrete element method (DEM). The triaxial tests were conducted on seven specimens covering a range from extremely low to high confining pressures. Each i...
متن کاملthe effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)
cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
The Correlation between the CBR and Shear Strength in Unsaturated Soil Conditions
In pavement design, the CBR and direct shear tests are two very common laboratory investigations for predicting the strength of a subgrade layer. The relationship between the CBR and water content has been commonly presented in analyses, with the result of the direct shear being expressed from the aspect of effective cohesion and the internal friction angle. Even though most natural soil is in...
متن کاملInvestigation of Shear Strength Anisotropy of c- &phi Soils
Cohesive-frictional soils are widely used in the construction of embankment structures and due to the method of construction, i.e. applying compactive efforts in the vertical direction in these cases, the occurrence of anisotropy in the soil strength and permeability seems to be inevitable. In this study, attempts have been made to evaluate the shear strength of c-f soils through modifying a l...
