Stiffness decay characteristics and disturbance effect evaluation of structured clay based on in-situ tests

The structure of the sedimentary clay influences its mechanical behavior in non-negligible ways. This paper proposes an effective approach for investigating the in-situ stiffness characteristics from shear modulus and strain decay curves (G–γ curves) based on self-boring pressuremeter and seismic di...
