...J. W. Pappin; S. F. Brown; M. P. O'Reilly The results of triaxial tests on specimens of compacted crushed rock in dry, saturated and partially saturated states are presented. A resilient strain model, developed earlier for dry materials, is shown successfully to predict strains in saturated...

... that the critical state friction angle in sands may be a function of the critical state void ratio. The steady/critical state line is shown to be non-linear, and to have a marked increase in slope at stress levels greater than about 1000 kPa. The critical or steady state point must be selected from triaxial test...
