Shear Strength of Sand: Integrated Analysis of Initial Porosity and Stress Effects

This paper investigates the effects of initial porosity index and load range on the shear strength of a sand sample using direct shear tests performed with a standard direct shear apparatus under varying densities, from loose to compacted. This study focuses on the distinction between the peak <i...
