Shales are involved in energy-related applications such as the extraction of shale gas, the CO2 storage and the nuclear waste disposal. In these contexts, fundamental issues come along with the multiphysical conditions in which shales are found, where mech ...
Scaly clays are stiff and highly fissured clays often used as construction materials. This paper presents the results of triaxial compression tests carried out on saturated and unsaturated samples of a compacted scaly clay. Complementary investigation on t ...
This paper describes a new formulation of the material point method (MPM) for solving coupled hydromechanical problems of fluid-saturated soil subjected to large deformation. A soil-pore fluid coupled MPM algorithm based on Biot's mixture theory is propose ...
Cracking is a most unwanted development in soil structures undergoing periodic drying. Desiccation cracking arises in the apparent absence of external forces. Hence, either an internal, self equilibrated stress pattern resulting from kinematic incompatibil ...

Objective: To perform a mechanical characterization of a self-setting calcium phosphate cement in function of the immersion time in Ringer solution. Materials and methods: Specimens of self-setting calcium phosphate cement were prepared from pure alpha-TCP ...
The paper examines the thermo-mechanical volume change behaviour of Opalinus Clay in relation to different stress conditions and overconsolidation ratio (OCR) values and evaluates the impact of temperature on some hydro-mechanical properties of this materi ...
Geologic CO2 sequestration is considered to be the most promising technique to reduce the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Among all the storage options, deep saline aquifers have the greatest potential and due to their worldwide occurr ...
Based on the one-dimensional Biot consolidation equations, this paper developed an advection-diffusion equation that incorporates saturation, compressibility of the pore fluid and longitudinal dispersivity of the solute transport in an unsaturated, deformi ...
We derive a three-dimensional constitutive theory accounting for length-scale dependent internal residual stresses in crystalline materials that develop due to a non-homogeneous spatial distribution of the excess dislocation (edge and screw) density. The s ...
