Morgenstern, N. R., Amir-Tahmasseb, I.
Hydrostatic pressure, arching of the soil and electro-osmotic forces have each been suggested as the dominant factor to account for stability of trench excavations in cohesionless soils supported by clay slurries. The Authors suggest that the most important mechanism is the hydrostatic pressure...

Abstract: The Lesueur landslide occurred on 3 September 1963 on the outside of a meander of the North Saskatchewan River in northeast Edmonton. The displaced volume was 0.76 Mm(3) of Pleistocene deposits and underlying Upper Cretaceous mudstones. The trigger of the landslide is believed to be...

TMSim_Consol
2021-06-04
Implemented in GoldSim, TMSim_Consol uses an explicit finite difference method to calculate the void ratio at each time step. Excess pore pressure and effective stress in each layer are then derived from void ratio. In addition to the specific gravity (Gs) and geometric properties of the deposit,...

Abstract: Time domain reflectometry (TDR) can be used to determine the volumetric water content of soils. This note describes the utilization of a TDR miniprobe in triaxial testing. The TDR performance was examined with a series of tests that not only proved its reliability but also resulted in...

Abstract: The relationship between the shapes of the yield surface and the undrained effective stress path (UESP) of loose sand is investigated for triaxial loading conditions. It is shown that the UESP can be used in the construction of capped yield surfaces for sands. The stress ratio M-p...
