摘要
Recent studies on anisotropy of soft clay are mostly carried out under undrained condition. There is a lack of anisotropy study of soft clay under drained condition. By using hollow cylinder apparatus(HCA), a series of drained shear tests were carried out, under different direction of principal stress and different intermediate principal stress coefficient. The results show that the isotropic consolidated soft clay has different stress-strain behaviors with different directions of principal stress. Compared to undrained condition, strain development is more gentle under drained condition and the inflection point of rapid strain development is not that obvious. Intermediate principal stress coefficient has a significant effect on strain development, especially when it lies in the range of [0.5, 1.0]. The non-coaxiality of soft clay turns out to highly depend on the direction of principal stress. The non-coaxiality is not remarkable when the direction of principal stress is around 0° or 90°, and 45° is a inflection point for the non-coaxiality of soft clay. The conclusions made by this paper can help us have a better understanding of the anisotropy of soft clay under drained condition, also provide a foundation for establishing constitutive relations and guiding engineering design. © 2016, Science Press.
