A Comparative Study on Shear Strength Testing of Single and Multi-layer Interfaces using Large Direct Shear Apparatus
… To date, many laboratories use single interface testing instead of multi-layer interface testing to determine geosynthetic shear design characteristic values that are used in the design of structures such as landfill liners. A topic of discussion remains the preferred interface testing …

An experimental method for visualizing undrained shearing failure in a transparent soft clay surrogate
… research investigated the use of non-invasive testing procedures to visualize the failure surface of four laboratory shear-testing techniques in a soft clay surrogate, Laponite RD, at shallow depths with minimal boundary effects. The thesis developed a procedure for tracking deformation in …

Development of Cu particle sintering as die attach solution for high temperature electronics applications
… method yields a Cu sinter paste that achieves a shear strength exceeding 50 MPa under industrially viable conditions: 275°C, 10 MPa bonding pressure, and 5 minutes of sintering time. The study provides a comprehensive analysis of sintering theory, covering mechanisms such as surface diffusion, …

Investigation of the Geotechnical Properties of Municipal Solid Waste as a Function of Placement Conditions
… compressibility, hydraulic conductivity, and shear strength testing over moisture contents ranging from 11% to 110%. Baseline compaction curves were developed for different compactive efforts. Similar to soils, the MMSW had bell shaped compaction curves that peaked at a maximum dry unit weight …

Investigation of aggregate properties influencing railroad ballast performance
… the fourteen ballast aggregates. First, direct shear tests conducted provided the shear strength of the ballast aggregates at three confining pressures followed by single particle crush tests to determine the statistical particle strength of each ballast aggregate material. Next, Los Angeles …
