Development and Evaluation of Preconditioning Protocols for Sand Specimens in Constant-Volume Cyclic Direct Simple Shear Tests

Francisco Humire et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of preconditioning on the engagement of sand specimens at the platen-soil interface and the stress-strain response of these specimens during constant-volume direct simple shear tests. The results showed that properly engaged textured platens can reduce slippage at the platen-soil interface.

Effect of Light Biocementation on the Liquefaction Triggering and Post-Triggering Behavior of Loose Sands

Minyong Lee et al.

Summary: Microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) is an environmentally conscious ground-improvement method that enhances the engineering properties of granular soils. This study found that light biocementation can significantly improve the liquefaction resistance of loose sands, but has almost no effect on post-triggering strain accumulation and reconsolidation behaviors.

Evolution of granular materials under isochoric cyclic simple shearing

Ming Yang et al.

Summary: By conducting 3D particle dynamics simulations, this study analyzed the microstructure and liquefaction state of granular materials under constant volume cyclic shearing, revealing the periodic jamming-unjamming transition leading to liquefaction. The research found that liquefaction is characterized by partial collapse of force-bearing network, decrease in coordination number and nonrattler fraction, and broadening of contact force probability density function. Additionally, the study showed that jamming transition and contact network percolation threshold are independent of initial conditions, leading to high contact anisotropy and decreased friction mobilization upon unjamming.
