Hong Kong marine deposits (HKMD) are considered to be difficult (or weak) soils for civil projects because of low shear strength and time-dependent high compressibility. Understanding and modelling the time-dependent stress-strain behaviour of HKMD are of practical significance in the analysis and design of civil structures on and in HKMD. In this technical note, test data on the time-dependent behaviour of a remoulded HKMD are presented and analysed. An existing elastic viscoplastic (EVP) modelling framework is used to describe the time-dependent stress-strain behaviour of HKMD. The modelling results are compared with the measured results.Key words: stress-strain, time dependent, creep, viscoplastic, triaxial, soil.

Abstract A study has been made of the influence of a dilating liquid, present during vulcanization, on the stress-strain behavior of EPDM vulcanizates. Stress-strain measurements performed on the vulcanizates after extraction of the dilating liquid, taken over a range of strain rates, indicate the effective absence of time-dependent behavior and suggest that a close approach to equilibrium has been achieved. From the experimental data, values of the C1 and C2 constants of the empirical Mooney-Rivlin equation were derived. It was found that both C1 and C2 decreased with increased precure dilation, C2 decreasing more rapidly than C1. The observed decrease in C2 is less than would be predicted by simple analogy with the Gaussian modulus; it is suggested that this difference might be explained by changes in network configuration and topology associated with the precure dilation.
