    • A constitutive model for soft clayey rocks that includes weathering effects 

      Pinyol Puigmartí, Núria Mercè; Vaunat, Jean; Alonso Pérez de Agreda, Eduardo (Institution of Civil Engineers (http://www.ice.org.uk/), 2007)
      Article
      Accés obert
      Microstructural and mineralogical observations of claystones reveal the presence of clay aggregates bonded by a skeleton of inert minerals such as calcium carbonate. The behaviour of these natural materials evolves from ...

    • A pressuremeter-based evaluation of structure in London Clay using a kinematic hardening constitutive model 

      Rouainia, M.; Panayides, Stelios; Arroyo Alvarez de Toledo, Marcos; Gens Solé, Antonio (Springer, 2020-08)
      Article
      Accés obert
      The self-boring pressuremeter (SBP) test was designed to measure in situ engineering properties of the ground with a relatively small amount of disturbance. The properties that may be inferred from the test depend on the ...

    • A review of Beliche Dam 

      Alonso Pérez de Agreda, Eduardo; Olivella Pastallé, Sebastià; Pinyol Puigmartí, Núria Mercè (Institution of Civil Engineers (http://www.ice.org.uk/), 2005)
      Article
      Accés obert
      Beliche Dam, a zoned earthdam with rockfill shouldersand a central clay core, experienced large collapse settlements due to reservoir impounding and direct action of rainfall. Long-term field records of vertical and ...

    • A subloading surface clay and sand model 

      Pinedo Vilcahuamán, Paul José; Monforte Vila, Lluís; Arroyo Alvarez de Toledo, Marcos; Gens Solé, Antonio (2023)
      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés obert
      The mechanical response of natural soils is characterized by a narrow elastic domain, a smooth transition between elastic to elasto-plastic regime, and hysteretic behaviour during cyclic loading. These realistic features ...

    • Analysis of the equations governing the motion of a degrading elastic solid due to diffusion of a fluid 

      Quintanilla de Latorre, Ramón; Rajagopal, Kumbakonam (2014-10)
      Article
      Accés obert
      Degradation of solids bearing load due to the infusion of moisture when exposed to the environment can leads to a decrease in their load carrying capacity and can also lead to the failure of the body from performing its ...

    • Compacted soil behaviour: initial state, structure and constitutive modelling 

      Alonso Pérez de Agreda, Eduardo; Pinyol Puigmartí, Núria Mercè; Gens Solé, Antonio (Thomas Telford, 2013-05)
      Article
      Accés obert
      The paper explores the behaviour of compacted soils throughout the (dry density–water content) compaction plane by means of a conceptual framework that incorporates microstructural information. The engineering properties ...

    • Mechanical behaviour of heavily compacted bentonite under high suction changes 

      Lloret Morancho, Antonio; Villar, María Victoria; Sánchez, M.; Gens Solé, Antonio; Pintado Llurba, Xavier; Alonso Pérez de Agreda, Eduardo (Institution of Civil Engineers (http://www.ice.org.uk/), 2003)
      Article
      Accés obert
      The paper reports the results of an experimental study carried out on a bentonite compacted to a dry density of up to 1·7 Mg=m3, a high value for this type of soil. The soil fabric has been studied using a variety of ...
