Drained residual shear strength at effective normal stresses relevant to soil slope stability analyses
( Elsevier B.V. , 2016 , Article)An extensive torsional ring shear testing program has been conducted to measure the drained residual shear strength of soils at the wide range of effective normal stress (10 to 700 kPa) usually mobilized in reactivated and ... -
Fully Softened and Residual Shear Strengths of Midra Shale
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2020 , Conference Paper)This paper presents a comparison of the fully softened shear strengths measured using the triaxial and torsional ring shear devices for a shale that possesses noticeably high plasticity and induration. The residual shear ... -
Stability charts for uniform slopes in soils with nonlinear failure envelopes
( Elsevier B.V. , 2014 , Article)Based on the results of an extensive parametric study, charts were developed for assessment of the stability of uniform slopes in soils with nonlinear shear strength failure envelopes. The study was conducted using envelopes ...
