in this study, a researching program is conducted by cyclic triaxial test to determine the post-cyclic behavior of bushehr carbonate sand retrieved from the north of the persian gulf, under anisotropic consolidation at 200 kpa confining pressure. the article compares the post-cyclic monotonic strength and excess pore water pressures generated after the test with the pre-cyclic monotonic results...

abstract: this paper presents the results of pullout tests on uniaxial geogrid embedded in silica sand under monotonic and cyclic pullout forces. the new testing device as a recently developed automated pullout test device for soil-geogrid strength and deformation behavior investigation is capable of applying load/displacement controlled monotonic/cyclic forces at different rates/frequencies an...
