A series of cyclic triaxial tests on clayey sands was carried out and attempts were made to evaluate the strain dependency of shear modulus and damping. Although the strain dependency of the shear modulus of clayey sands was similar to that of clay in the low strain range, G/G0 became close to that of clean sand in the high strain range. The damping ratio was less for the clayey sand containing more fines, especially in the medium to large strain range. It was shown that the change in the effective confining stress with loading cycles in the undrained shear test needed to be considered, particularly in the large strain range. The consideration can be made by normalising G with G0' instead of using G0. When an initial shear stress was applied to the specimen, the amount of residual strain, which was induced with cycles, had to be added to the normal strain amplitude in order to determine the shear modulus. If the effects of excess pore pressure and the amount of residual strain were taken into account properly, it was suggested that the shear modulus of clayey sand in irregular loading could be evaluated reasonably well by using the average G/G0—γcurve obtained by cyclic loading tests on isotropically-consolidated specimens. |
