Steady state of deformation analysis for a clayey sand
… was analyzed for a clayey sand. The use of lubricated end platens was evaluated and proved to reduce the scatter in steady state data. The effect of different data corrections in a steady state analysis was also evaluated. For this investigation the parabolic area assumption better …

An Examination of the Validity of Steady State Shear Strength Determination Using Isotropically Consolidated Undrained Triaxial Tests
… the influence of variations in restraint at the end platens on stress distributions in the sample and measured stress-strain response. The finite element analyses incorporated axisymmetric interface elements to model the friction characteristics between the end platens and the specimen ends. The …

Rate Effect Behaviour of Different Clays from High Speed Triaxial Element Testing
… to improve the accuracy of the results including lubricated end platens to minimise strain localisations and a new mid-height pore pressure sensor capable of measuring rapid pore pressure changes.<br/><br/>Each of the three clays investigated were tested over a range of initial mean effective …
