Objective: To explore the mechanical properties of weak expansive soil under different
moisture contents and confining pressures. Methods: The triaxial remolded soil samples with …

Sea areas with an average water depth of 5-15 m in the East China Sea are mostly muddy
soft-foundation seabed. The wind power infrastructure built on them must fully consider the …

This paper experimentally evaluates the influence of shearing rate on the monotonic and
cyclic response of isotropically consolidated samples of Malaysian kaolin. On the one hand …

This paper intends to study the influence of the shearing rate on the undrained monotonic
behavior of marine clay under different over-consolidation ratios and the effect of sample …

Due to the limited land resources in major cities, reclamation becomes an optimal option to
solve this issue, unsaturated soil is often involved in these projects, and the hydro …

In this research, creep behavior during shearing (deviatoric creep) was studied through a
series of constant water content triaxial tests for unsaturated soil under different stress …

Up to now, most of the research on rate effects has investigated the behavior of soft soils,
much less is known for the stiff clays. In particular, the method of stepwise changing strain …

In this research, the effect of specimen sizes with different dimensions and displacement
rates was studied on the behavior of two fine-grained soils via conducting consolidated …

This study investigates the geotechnical properties of soft Pak Phanang marine clay,
prevalent in Nakhon Si Thammarat province, Thailand, where rapid economic development …

Consolidated undrained triaxial shear tests were performed on undisturbed saturated
structured clay at three unloading rates (0.1, 0.25, and 2.5 kPa/min) using a GDS triaxial …
