AbstractOur objective is to measure the mechanical properties of anisotropic ice of the EPICA ice core, from Dome Concordia, Antarctica, through the full depth of the borehole in deformation experiments under simulated ice-sheet conditions of temperature and pressure. We propose to undertake experiments on the EPICA core using both a conventional triaxial-test apparatus and a new, true, triaxial-test apparatus incorporating automated tomographic imaging of the ice-fabric evolution during deformation. We present the design of this new apparatus together with our testing methodology for EPICA ice. The new apparatus is capable of deforming an ice specimen, up to 200 mm × 100 mm × 40 mm, under servo-controlled biaxial loading with a superimposed confining pressure of 50 MPa and at temperatures down to –40°C. Highly unusual problems arising from the true triaxial nature of the apparatus and tomographic imaging are discussed.

In this paper, the common failure criteria of existing soil materials, such as the Mohr–Coulomb criterion, Drucker–Prager criterion, Lade–Duncan criterion, Matsuoka–Nakai criterion andAC-SMP criterion are systematically discussed, and the applicability of these criteria is quantitatively analyzed through the true triaxial test results of loess, so as to provide reference for the accurate selection of specific criteria in engineering practice. The failure criteria are classified from several aspects, such as whether the influence of the intermediate principal stress and the change of spatial moving plane are considered, analyzed and discussed, respectively. According to the true triaxial test results of undisturbed loess, the difference of strength criterion between the three-dimensional failure plane and p-q plane is analyzed, and based on the true triaxial test data of undisturbed loess, the error analysis of each failure criterion is carried out. The results show that the AC-SMP criterion is in good agreement with the test results, and can accurately evaluate the true triaxial test of loess. For different soil materials or different stress states, it is necessary to select appropriate failure criteria. This study shows how to choose the corresponding failure criterion under specific circumstances, so as to better satisfy the theory and practice and provide reference for engineering.
