The effect of particle shape on the strength, dilatancy, and stress-dilatancy relationship was
systematically investigated through a series of drained triaxial compression tests on sands …

Suffusion, the process of particle migration and clogging within porous media, exerts a
remarkable impact on various natural and engineered systems. Properties of the coarse …

This paper presents a systematic experimental investigation into the impact of specimen
preparation on the cyclic loading behavior of saturated sand, including the deformation …

Tailings dams can be fragile structures and too often they are subject to liquefaction. The
material they are composed of is rather peculiar, having a man-made origin, and their …

Suffusion, one of the modes of internal erosion, has been widely detected in both natural
deposits and filled structures. It is the phenomenon that the fine particles in soil gradually …

The analytical description of path-dependent elastic-plastic responses of a granular system
is highly complicated because of continuously evolving microstructures and strain …

In this study, the influence of transient flow on the active and passive lateral earth pressures
of variably saturated backfills is thoroughly evaluated employing the lower bound theorems …

A unified hypoplastic model is formulated by incorporating the anisotropic critical state
theory to describe the fabric effect in sand under both monotonic and cyclic loading …

Experimental evidence shows that the strength of geomaterials, such as soils and rocks, is
significantly influenced by inherent anisotropy and other factors such as shear banding and …

A complete characterization detailing the intricate and complex response of geomaterials
remains a challenging task that can only be realized on a partial basis via a careful drilling …
