ANISOTROPIC ELASTICITY OF A NATURAL CLAY

The paper examines the five elastic parameters needed to describe transverse isotropy, sometimes called cross-anisotropy. It is shown that only three parameters can be measured in triaxial tests, and reasonable assumptions, with easily identifiable physical significance, are proposed which permit ex...
