Void ratio has traditionally been used as a state variable for predicting the liquefaction
behaviour of soils under the critical state soil mechanics framework. Recent publications …

The liquefaction behavior and cyclic resistance ratio (CRR) of reconstituted samples of non-
plastic silt and sandy silts with 50% and 75% silt content are examined using constant …

The liquefaction of saturated sandy soils during dynamic loading can inflict excessive
damage on the structures, leading to significant human and economic losses. Recycling and …

In this study, stress-controlled cyclic simple shear tests were performed on sand specimens
with up to 10% silt or clay contents, and coupled effects of plasticity, fines content (FC) …

In this work, the influence of different types of fine materials on the shear-induced instability
of sand–fines mixtures was studied from various aspects. For this purpose, clean sand was …

In laboratory testing, the liquefaction resistance of sands is typically evaluated using cyclic
triaxial and simple shear tests. These tests cannot be used in a rigorous manner to …

Literature review revealed that effects of particle segregation and silt uniformity on the
liquefaction resistance of sand–silt mixtures are not well understood. Therefore, cyclic direct …

Given that hollow cylinder testing of undisturbed sand samples is virtually impossible to
carry out, a new slurry deposition method is described in this study that allows reconstitution …

This article presents a laboratory study of static behavior of silty-sand soils. The objective of
this laboratory investigation is to study the effect of initial confining pressures and fines …

Behavior of sand–silt mixture under cyclic loading and static loading has been studied. In
cyclic triaxial test, specimens were prepared by moist-tamping method, and in static test both …
