In this research, behaviour of clayey soils under triaxial loading is studied using Neural Network. The models have been prepared to predict the stress-strain behaviour of remolded clays under undrained condition. The advantage of the model developed is that simple parameters such as physical characteristics of soils like water content, fine content, Atterberg limits and so on, are used to mode...

Undrained instability is a failure mode that has been observed in many sandy slopes. However, the highly anisotropic stress states caused by geometry of slope have not duly considered from experimental point view. This article studies influence initial anisotropy laboratory samples on static undrained Colombian reference sand. Forty-five consolidated triaxial tests were performed, prescribing c...

Horizontal deformations can cause damage to objects adjacent to a newly constructed embankment. A tool has been developed to determine in an early state of a project if such a risk exists. The basis of this tool is an Artificial Neural Network (ANN). ANNs are particularly suited to find a relationship between an input and an output parameter, even if it is a very complex one. With this in mind,...

Frameworks for estimating soil properties from CPT penetration resistances must account for the effects of overburden stress on both the penetration resistance and the soil property of interest, including how such effects vary with soil type. For example, common procedures for estimating the liquefaction resistance of sands include functional terms that account for the effect of overburden stre...
