Abstract: (18101 Views)
This paper presents the results of a series of monotonic and post-cyclic triaxial tests
carried out on a clay specimen and three types of clay-sand mixed specimens. The focus of the paper
is on the post-cyclic mechanical behavior of the mixed specimens, as compared to their monotonic
behavior. Analyses of the tests results show that cyclic loading degrade undrained shear strength
and deformation modulus of the specimens during the post-cyclic monotonic loading. The
degradation depends on the sand content, the cyclic strain level and to some degrees to the
consolidation pressure.
Keywords: mixed clayey soils, undrained behavior, triaxial testing, post-cyclic loading, pore water pressure
