NTNU GEOTEKNIKK – PROSJEKTFORSLAG FOR STUDENTER PÅ STUDIERETNING K OG BA 8
Cyclic shear
strength
Cyclic pore pressures and shear strength. Cyclic loading induces excess pore water
pressures in the foundation soil which, in turn, reduces the undrained shear strength
of soil and the foundation capacity. The project task is to study the development of
cyclic pore pressures during cyclic loading with partial drainage using cyclic shear
laboratory tests and given cyclic load history. The study will be restricted to one soil
element subjected to cyclic loading of constant amplitude and assuming constant
consolidation degree due to partial drainage.
The study can be further expanded into a Master thesis where a real cyclic history can
be modeled using the program “CYCPORE2”.
