Abstract
This study investigates the influence of structure and stress history on the strain-rate-dependent (viscous) stress–strain behavior of a very-high-plasticity stiff sedimentary clay. Oedometer, ring shear, and triaxial compression tests with step changes in strain rate have been conducted on specimens of Søvind Marl with the aim to characterize and quantify the rate-dependent behavior of the clay in both compression and shearing pre-peak, post-peak, and at residual state. Moreover, from a comparison of intact specimens and normally consolidated and overconsolidated reconstituted specimens, the influence of diagenesis and mechanical overconsolidation on the rate-dependent behavior is assessed and discussed in the light of findings from similar studies on other high-plasticity clays.
期刊介绍：
The purpose of the Geotechnical Testing Journal is (1) to provide a high-quality publication that informs the profession of new developments in soil and rock testing and related fields; (2) to provide a forum for the exchange of information, particularly that which leads to the development of new test procedures; and (3) to stimulate active participation of the profession in the work of ASTM International Committee D18 on Soil and Rock and related information.
The editorial scope of this journal covers test methods for soil and rock, sampling, nomenclature, and practices relating to the determination of properties and behavior of soil and rock for engineering purposes, and for soil as a medium for plant growth.
