...Riccardo Fanni; David Reid; Andy Fourie A laboratory study was carried out on a sandy silt gold tailings to investigate the effect of the Lode angle (θ) on the critical state line (CSL) in the compression (e–p′) and effective stress (q–p′) planes, and to study...

..., indicating static liquefaction or flow failure. The peak and critical state friction angles of coral silt are lower than those of coral sand but much higher than those of the other terrigenous clayey silts. A curved critical state line with well-defined horizontal asymptote in the deviatoric stress – mean...
