One of the main issues in design foundations is correct forecast development long-term deformations (settlement) foundations. Among factors affecting settlement, one can single out neglect changes rheological parameters soil time and loading regime, as well processes hardening time. The work presents results a study behaviour samples clayey with disturbed structure under conditions triaxial cyc...

On the basis of plastic bounding surface model, the damage theory for structured soils and unsaturated soil mechanics, an elastoplastic model for unsaturated loessic soils under cyclic loading has been elaborated. Firstly, the description of bond degradation in a damage framework is given, linking the damage of soil’s structure to the accumulated strain. The Barcelona Basic Model (BBM) was cons...

Currently, over half of China’s trunk railways are located in permafrost regions. But to tackle the railway subgrade disease has always been the difficulty in the railway construction there. The influence that the dynamics performance of frozen silty clay has on permafrost subgrade is an important component in the researches towards permafrost subgrade. In this paper, the dynamics performance o...

Seismic piezocone device (SCPTu) together with Resonant Column and Cyclic Triaxial test apparatus are employed to measure small strain shear modulus (G0) of carbonate sandy and clayey soils of southern coasts of Iran. A large area of southern regions of Iran is formed from clay, silt and sand. In this study, maximum shear modulus that is derived from both field (by seismic piezocone) and labora...
