The interpretation of in-situ geotechnical test data needs a unified approach so that soil parameters are evaluated in a consistent and complementary manner with laboratory results. A common thread in assessing in-situ tests is the focus on the geologic stress ...

Contrary to many laboratory investigations, common empirical correlations from in situ tests consider that the increase in the percentage of fines leads to an increase of the cyclic liquefaction resistance of sands. This paper draws upon the integrated Critical ...

This paper presents the multiaxial formulation of a plasticity model for sand under cyclic shearing.

This paper analyses the effect of fines content f(%) on cyclic liquefaction resistance in a Critical State Soil Mechanics context.

<p>This Lecture will re-appraise the normal soil mechanics theory by contrasting it with the alternative theory of soil mechanics.</p>

Evaluation of postliquefaction shear strength or critical strength ratio and back analysis of slope instability of dam.

Critical state models are highly successful in reproducing the behavior of soft clays as far as the major differences between elastic and plastic behavior are concerned. However, they are not able to model the non-linear behavior of soils at small strains. ...
