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 …

Mega reclamation projects have been undertaken on the coral reefs. However, research on
the geotechnical properties of the hydraulically filled carbonate sand is limited, and the …

Microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) is a ground improvement method often
driven by ureolytic bacteria to precipitate calcite in a soil mass. While in previous studies …

The behavior of a sand-steel interface can be different than the shearing behavior of a sand.
This study focuses on the effect of shear loading on a sand-to-sand and a sand-steel …

The roles of particle breakage and drainage conditions on the quasi-static compression
response of sand were evaluated by comparing the results from drained and undrained …

Laboratory critical state line (CSL) testing used in engineering practice to analyse the
stability and liquefaction susceptibility of tailings explicitly assumes a unique CSL for a …

Triaxial tests are often used to determine the behavior and strength characteristics of soils
without due attention to the differences in specimen size. Several drained and undrained …

Few studies have focused on the influence of particle shape on the mechanical properties of
cemented sand. To address this lack of information, this study investigated the influence of …

This study examines the effect of the initial fabric on the coefficient of the lateral earth
pressure at rest K0, the undrained monotonic loading strength and the liquefaction …

The effect of initial fabric anisotropy produced by sample preparation on the shear behavior
of granular soil is investigated by performing discrete element method (DEM) simulations of …
