Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling of Stress- Strain Curves of Drained Triaxial Test on SandAwad Al- Karni, Abdulhafiz AlshenawyThis paper presents a hyperbolic mathematical model to predict the complete stress-strain curve of drained triaxial tests on uniform dense sand. The model was formed in one equation with many parameters. The main parameters that are needed to run the model are the confining pressure, angle of friction and the relative density. The other parameters, initial and final slopes of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2006 · 6,838 accessesView PDFCite
