Geosynthetic-reinforced soil structures have been used extensively in recent decades due to their significant advantages over more conventional earth retaining structures, including the cost-effectiveness, reduced construction time, and possibility of using locally-available lower quality soils and/or waste materials, such as recycled construction and demolition (C&D) wastes. The time-dependent shear behaviour at the interfaces between the geosynthetic and the backfill is an important factor affecting the overall long-term performance of such structures, and thereby should be properly understood. In this study, an innovative multistage direct shear test procedure is introduced to characterise the time-dependent response of the interface between a high-strength geotextile and a recycled C&D material. After a prescribed shear displacement is reached, the shear box is kept stationary for a specific period of time, after which the test proceeds again, at a constant displacement rate, until the peak and large-displacement shear strengths are mobilised. The shear stress-shear displacement curves from the proposed multistage tests exhibited a progressive decrease in shear stress with time (stress relaxation) during the period in which the shear box was restrained from any movement, which was more pronounced under lower normal stress values. Regardless of the prior interface shear displacement and duration of the stress relaxation stage, the peak and residual shear strength parameters of the C&D material-geotextile interface remained similar to those obtained from the conventional (benchmark) tests carried out under constant displacement rate.

In order to test the reducing adhesion and resistance effect of bionic metal non-smooth surface, the direct shear test is experimented on a kind of bionic dredging tools with typical soil and bionic concave pit-like metal surface.The relation of shear force and shear displacement on a certain pressure is presented. The result will help to design the structure of cutting soil tools’ surfaces with less adhesion and resistance.

An experimental investigation into the performance of two 22 mm diameter, 60 t tensile strength capacity Hilti cable bolts in shear was conducted using the double-shear testing apparatus at the laboratory of the School of Civil, Mining and Environmental Engineering, Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences, University of Wollongong. The tested cable bolts were (i) Hilti 19 wire HTT-UXG plain strand and (ii) Hilti 19 wire HTT-IXG spirally profiled (smaller cross-sectional area than the plain one) cable bolt, with indentation only on the surface of the outer strands. These cable bolts are of sealed wire construction type, consisting of an outer 5.5 mm diameter wire layer overlying the middle 3 mm diameter wire strands. Both layers are wrapped around a single solid 7 mm diameter strand wire core. The double-shearing test was carried out in 40 MPa concrete blocks, contained in concrete moulds. Cable bolts were encapsulated in concrete using Orica FB400 pumpable grout. Prior to encapsulation, each cable bolt was pre-tensioned initially to 50 kN axial force. A 500 t capacity servocontrolled compression testing machine was used for both tests, and during each test the vertical shear displacement was limited to 70 mm of travel. The rate of vertical shear displacement was maintained constant at 1 mm/min. The maximum shear load achieved for the plain strand cable was 1024 kN, while the spiral cable peak load was 904 kN, before the cable bolt wires began to individually snap, leading to the cable bolt break-up into two sections. It is apparent that spiral profiles of the outer wires weaken both the tensile and shearing strength. Finally, another set of tests was undertaken using the British Standard single-shear approach, producing lower shear strength values.

In recent years, the advancement of computerized modeling has allowed for the creation of extensive pneumatic tire models. These models have been used to determine many tire properties and tire-road interaction parameters which are either prohibitively expensive or unavailable with physical models. More recently, computerized modeling has been used to explore tire-soil interactions. The new parameters created by these interactions were defined for these models, but accurate soil constitutive equations were lacking. With the previous models, the soil was simulated using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). However, the meshless modeling method of Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) may be a viable approach to more accurately simulating large soil deformations and complex tire-soil interactions. With both the FEA and SPH soils modeled as elastic-plastic solids, simplified soil tests are conducted. First, pressure-sinkage tests are used to explore the differences in the two soil-modeling methods. From these tests, it is found that the FEA model supports a surface pressure via the tensile forces created by the stretching of the surface elements. Conversely, for the SPH model, the surface pressure is supported via the compressive forces created by the compacting of particles. Next, shear-displacement tests are conducted with the SPH soil (as this test cannot easily be performed with an FEA soil model). These shear tests show that the SPH soil behaves more like clay in initial shearing and more like sand by exhibiting increased shearing due to vertical loading. While both the pressure-sinkage and shear-displacement tests still show that a larger particle density is unnecessary for SPH soil modeling, the shear-displacement tests indicate that an elastic-plastic material model may not be the best choice.

Widespread applications of rigid polyurethane and plastic foams lead to shear deformations. Therefore, methods for ensuring shear using experimental investigations are necessary, including the possibility of determining the shear modulus, strength and limit angle. Therefore, a device that allows investigating the shear properties of highly porous plastic foams was developed. The proposed device comprises a clip-on extensometer, commonly exploited in uni-axial compression/tension tests, for the determination of the shear displacement directly on the foams’ sample, on a measurement zone of certain dimensions and location. An innovative construction of the extensometer’s legs is elaborated, permitting to investigate the shear displacement field for different dimensions of the measurement zone. Precision of the device is examined by performing a penetration test on materials of different densities: (a) polyurethane foams and (b) wood. Technology for the production of isotropic polyurethane foams as a test material is described in detail. Experimental determination of shear modulus and strength of one and the same sample, in one and the same experiment is elaborated. Displacements in different zones of sample’s work beam are investigated. Experimental data are compared with the results of mathematical modelling and a good correlation is proved to exist.

This paper is concerned with an analysis of the seismic performance of infinite slopes in undrained conditions. The material assumed on the sliding surface is a loose saturated sand susceptible to a gradual loss in undrained shear strength after failure with the progress of unidirectional shear displacement. The undrained monotonic and cyclic shear behavior of this sand was investigated through an experimental study based on ring shear tests, with initial stresses corresponding to the static conditions on the sliding surface of the analyzed slopes. These tests provide the experimental framework for a modified sliding block method to estimate the earthquake-induced undrained shear displacements for conditions of no shear stress reversals on the sliding surface. The proposed estimation procedure incorporates the shearing resistance obtained from undrained monotonic ring shear tests to approximate the undrained yield resistance at a certain displacement during an earthquake. The term catastrophic failure is used in this study to define the accelerated motion of a potential sliding soil mass due to the static driving shear stress exceeding the reduced undrained yield resistance of the soil on the shear surface. The critical displacement necessary to trigger a catastrophic failure on the shear surface under seismic conditions was derived based on the shear resistance – shear displacement curve obtained under monotonic loading conditions. Using the shear resistance – shear displacement data from undrained monotonic ring shear tests and several processed horizontal earthquake accelerograms, the minimum peak earthquake acceleration necessary to cause a catastrophic shear failure under various seismic waveforms was estimated for conditions of no shear stress reversals on the sliding surface.Key words: earthquakes, slopes, critical shear displacement, sand, ring shear tests, undrained shear strength.
