Test results revealed that Iv was more suitable for depicting the compression behavior of pure clays than IvH; whereas, for the compressibility of sand–clay mixtures, the normalized compression line by using Iv was obviously different from that of pure clays and traditional soils due to the presence of sand particles. Therefore, a four-phase analysis framework of sand–clay mixtures was introduced to unify the intrinsic compression behavior of soils with and without sands. It was found that the updated clay void index Ivc parameter was effective to unify the soil’s compression behavior by excluding the influence of sand particles in clays before the sand skeleton formation. After the formation of the sand skeleton, the cluster particles change the stress distribution of mixtures, leading to less stress being applied on the clay matrix and thus the bifurcation of the intrinsic compression behavior.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:43:42 AEDT ]]> Experimental investigation of compaction-grouted soil nails https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:31215 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:43:17 AEDT ]]> Some aspects of the mechanics of arching in backfilled stopes https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:7633 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:34:39 AEDT ]]> Contaminant transport through an unsaturated soil linear beneath a landfill https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:1071 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:32:11 AEDT ]]> Coupled two-dimensional finite element modelling of mine backfilling with cemented tailings https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:11571 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:14:02 AEDT ]]> Description of compression behaviour of structured soils and its application https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:20780 λ, should be considered together with the traditional strength (or stress) sensitivity coefficient, St (or Sσ), to better characterize the sensitivity of structured soils.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:05:51 AEDT ]]> Uplift behaviour of helical anchors in clay https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17270 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:01:22 AEDT ]]> Coupling hydraulic with mechanical models for unsaturated soils https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17660 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:57:47 AEDT ]]> Stability of a single tunnel in cohesive-frictional soil subjected to surcharge loading https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17721 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:57:26 AEDT ]]> Spatial correlation length of normalized cone data in sand: case study in the north of Denmark https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:19839 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:57:04 AEDT ]]> Integrating Eurocode 7 (load and resistance factor design) using nonconventional factoring strategies in slope stability analysis https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:19138 d ≤ Rd — the effects of all the actions, Ed, with the corresponding resistance of the ground, Rd. Although this method considers different loading conditions by using suitable combinations of design values, it is still based on direct comparison of the available shear strength with the mobilized stresses. In the present paper, various factoring strategies (in addition to the traditional one with respect to shear strength of soils) are integrated into a limit-state method framework. Eurocode 7 has been chosen for this purpose. The whole procedure aims at giving a more comprehensive insight into the design of slopes and the sensitivity of safety level of slopes to the various parameters. In addition, the proposed methodology, as shown, may result in a safety level of slopes significantly lower than the respective one obtained using the limit-state method in its traditional form. As man-made slopes that conform to design standards often fail in practice, even though conservative input values are used, these failures must be treated with more skepticism by practitioners adopting supplementary design practices such the one presented herein.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:55:56 AEDT ]]> Relative performance of two unsaturated soil models using different constitutive variables https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:20848 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:55:17 AEDT ]]> Stability of dual square tunnels in cohesive-frictional soil subjected to surcharge loading https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:16880 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:54:49 AEDT ]]> Lower-bound calculations of the bearing capacity of eccentrically loaded footings in cohesionless soil https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:16874 0.25B–0.3B, where B is the width of the foundation), the lower-bound values in general — and especially for greater surcharges — are considerably smaller than the bearing capacities predicted by existing methods.
