Abstract: Abstract Liquefaction resistance of sand can be either increased or reduced due to an undrained cyclic pre-shearing depending on the degree of pre-shearing, which hinders a better prediction of liquefaction potential to be established. The… read more here.

Abstract: The constant volume behavior of sands is substantially influenced by the initial stress anisotropy. This research aims to investigate the stress anisotropy effect by conducting a series of bidirectional direct simple shear tests that can… read more here.
