A new high-pressure triaxial apparatus for inducing and tracking hydro-mechanical degradation of clayey rocks
Pineda Jiménez, Jubert Andrés; Romero Morales, Enrique Edgar; Alonso Pérez de Agreda, Eduardo; Pérez Revilla, Tomás (2014-11)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper presents the development of a new high-pressure triaxial apparatus specifically prepared for inducing and tracking the degradation of clayey rocks. Total suction—used to induce the hydraulic degradation—is applied ... -
Ageing effects on the stiffness behaviour of a microbiologically treated and compacted soil
Morales, Laura; Romero Morales, Enrique Edgar; Pineda Jiménez, Jubert Andrés; Garzon, E.; Giménez, Antonio (Springer, 2012)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe paper describes an experimental study aimed at evaluating the evolution of some mechanical properties, specifically small-strain stiffness and unconfined compressive strength, induced by ageing after a microbiological ... -
Effects of relative humidity cycling on the hydro-mechanical behaviour of two clayey rocks from North-East Spain
Pineda Jiménez, Jubert Andrés; Alonso Pérez de Agreda, Eduardo (CRC Press, 2013)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe paper describes the results of an experimental research aimed at studying the effects of relative humidity cycling on the degradation phenomena of two clayey rocks from North-East Spain, with particular emphasis on ... -

Foundation of a gravity dam on layered soft rock: shear strength of bedding planes in laboratory and large "in situ" tests
Alonso Pérez de Agreda, Eduardo; Pinyol Puigmartí, Núria Mercè; Pineda Jiménez, Jubert Andrés (2014-12)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyA 100 m high gravity dam (Castrovido dam, Burgos, Spain) is founded on a soft Weald red claystone with inter-bedded sandstone strata. Claystone weathering was identified in vertical and horizontal profiles of water content ... -
From saturated to unsaturated conditions and vice versa
Lloret Cabot, Marti; Wheeler, Simon J.; Pineda Jiménez, Jubert Andrés; Romero Morales, Enrique Edgar; Sheng, Daichao (2018-02)
Article
Open AccessRepresenting transitions between saturated and unsaturated conditions, during drying, wetting and loading paths, is a necessary step for a consistent unification between saturated and unsaturated soil mechanics. Transitions ... -
Influence of soil microstructure on air permeability in compacted clay
Viet, Hoang Nguyen; Pineda Jiménez, Jubert Andrés; Romero Morales, Enrique Edgar; Sheng, Daichao (Thomas Telford, 2021-05)
Article
Open AccessThis paper describes an experimental study aimed at evaluating the influence of soil microstructure on air permeability in compacted clay. Air permeability measurements, estimated using the gas pressure decay method, were ... -
Microstructural evaluation of the water sensitivity of clayey rocks
Pineda Jiménez, Jubert Andrés; Romero Morales, Enrique Edgar; Tarragó, Dani; Tauler, Esperança; Alonso Pérez de Agreda, Eduardo (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2013)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe paper presents both macroscopic and microstructural evidence of the water sensitivity of a low porosity clayey rock from Northern Spain. Particular emphasis is focused on the effects of water sensitivity at micro level. ... -
Sample quality examination on silty soils
Arroyo Alvarez de Toledo, Marcos; Pineda Jiménez, Jubert Andrés; Sau Valenzuela, Núria; Devincenzi, M.J.; Pérez, N. (Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), 2015)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyMediterranean deltaic environments typically produce soil deposits in which silts dominate, granular intercalations are frequent and the mineralogy includes an important carbonate fraction. One question still open is what ... -
Shear strength degradation in claystones due to environmental effects
Pineda Jiménez, Jubert Andrés; Romero Morales, Enrique Edgar; De Gracia, Manuel; Sheng, Daichao (Thomas Telford, 2014-05)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis note explores the influence of environmental effects, as those induced by cyclic changes in relative humidity, on the degradation of the shear strength parameters in Lilla claystone, a low-porosity clayey rock from ... -
