Evaluation of Horizontal Stresses in Soil during Direct Simple Shear by High-Resolution Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing

This paper presents an approach for evaluating the horizontal stresses that develop in geotechnical Direct Simple Shear (DSS) tests through the use of high-resolution distributed fiber optic sensing. For this aim, fiber optics were embedded in 3D printed rings used for confining the soil in the test...
