Chapter Chapter 3 in Practice of Constitutive Modelling for Saturated Soils, 2020, pp 61-81 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter summarizes six common laboratory tests, including the oedometer test, triaxial test, simple shear test, biaxial test, true triaxial test, and hollow cylinder torsional shear test, and their associated stress and strain paths for developing constitutive models and calibration are also introduced. Additionally, the operation for simulating each test in the ErosLab platform is introduced for in-depth understanding and practice.
