DOI: 10.1007/s10706-018-0533-8
Abstract: In numerical modelling of soil response it is often required to define an accurate value for the stiffness at small strains (G0). Such values are usually obtained from tables or charts available in the literature,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.compgeo.2019.04.008
Abstract: Abstract This letter examines the effect of fines content on the small-strain stiffness (G0) of gap-graded soils via the discrete element method (DEM). The G0 values were obtained by DEM simulations of drained triaxial tests.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1144/qjegh2017-040
Abstract: Soil stiffness can vary over several orders of magnitude depending on the actual range of strain imposed by testing, or as a result of operational strains in geotechnical structures. Soil stiffness changes rapidly with strain… read more here.
