The behaviour of stone columns has yet to be captured fully by analytical and numerical
techniques, and predicting column behaviour in soft cohesive soils brings specific …

The paper focuses on investigating the destructuration process during time-dependent
stress-strain evolution. For this purpose, various oedometer tests and triaxial tests on intact …

This paper presents a three dimensional constitutive model that describes the creep
behaviour of natural clays with anisotropic stress–strain response, focussing on robust …

This paper presents a generalised constitutive model for destructured, naturally structured
and artificially structured clays that extends the Structured Cam Clay (SCC) model. This …

The aim of the paper is to simulate the response of a deep excavation supported by sheet
pile walls and lime-cement columns. The application of the deep mixing technique using …

This paper investigates the time-dependent behaviour of Murro test embankment in Finland.
The embankment was built in 1993 on a soft natural clay deposit, which exhibits large strain …

This paper proposes a rigorous undrained solution for cylindrical cavity expansion problems
in K 0-consolidated clays, adopting a simple non-associated and anisotropic model …

Many geotechnical problems involve undrained behavior of clay and the capacity in
undrained loading. Most constitutive models used today are effective stress based and only …

This paper describes the results of numerical simulations investigating the installation effects
of stone columns in a natural soft clay. The geometry of the problem is simplified to axial …

Natural soils usually exhibit microstructure effects that significantly influence their
engineering properties; however, existing hypoplastic constitutive models rarely consider …
