On reliability of inferring liquefied shear strengths from simple shear testing

A laboratory study was carried out to compare the behaviour of loose tailings under simple shear loading using a torsional shear hollow cylinder device (TSHC) and a direct simple shear (DSS) device, with a focus on shear strength at high strains. This work was carried out on tailings for which the c...
