Book ChapterDOI
The hardening soil model: Formulation and verification
TL;DR: In this paper, a new constitutive model is introduced which is formulated in the framework of classical theory of plasticity, and the total strains are calculated using a stress-dependent stiffness, different for both virgin loading and unloading.
Journal Article
Angles of friction and dilatancy of sand
Tom Schanz,Pieter A. Vermeer +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present data on a uniquecritical state angle for a very loose sand, which gives the Mohr-Coulomb condition and the known six-sided pyramid in principalstress space.
Journal ArticleDOI
Swelling pressures of compacted bentonites from diffuse double layer theory
TL;DR: The swelling pressures of several compacted bentonites (MX80, Febex, and Montigel) proposed for use as barrier materials in storing high-level radioactive waste in many countries were determined in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impacts of the use of the geological subsurface for energy storage: an investigation concept

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a generic methodology on how subsurface use planning can be conducted and how its scientific basis can be developed, based on these, a first methodology for large-scale planning of the geological sub-surface considering different surface and subsureface usage scenarios may also be derived.
