Investigation of the overconsolidation and structural behavior of Shanghai clays by element testing and constitutive modeling

The mechanical properties and constitutive modeling of Shanghai clays are very important for numerical analysis on geotechnical engineering in Shanghai, where continuous layers of soft clays run 30–40 m deep. The clays are divided into 5 major layers. A series of laboratory tests are carried out to...
