Abstract:
Soil Mechanics, as one of the most important basic courses in civil engineering, hydraulic engineering and other courses, mainly analyzes the questions of deformation and stability of the soli body. The undergraduates begin to learn soil mechanics after finishing advanced mathematics, college physics, theoretical mechanics and mechanics of materials. The objects researched in the above-mentioned courses are idealised, so the rigorous mathematic deduction is feasible and only a few hypotheses are needed. Soil is different from other materials, so inevitably the methodology and thinking mode in soil mechanics are special compared with other mechanical courses, which makes students feel confused at the beginning stage of this course. It is necessary to let students know the teaching idea, research method, common problems during the instruction of soil mechanics, which is also helpful to their further studies and researches. Based on these factors, an inductive teaching method is put forward, which summarizes the essential ideas and important questions in soil mechanics.

Abstract:
Analytical description of the interaction between the tracks with soil is quite difficult, although to date the physical and mechanical properties of soils are fairly well understood. However, the application of the laws of soil mechanics to describe the interaction of track with soil is not acceptable because of loading dynamism of soil with elements of track bearing surfaces. Therefore, to describe the process of interaction of track with soil the experimental data are used, which revealed some general patterns.

Abstract:
The implementation of unsaturated soil mechanics into geotechnical engineering practice requires that there be a paradigm shift from classical soil mechanics methodology. The primary drawback to implementation has been the excessive costs required to experimentally measure unsaturated soil properties. The use of the soil-water characteristic curve has been shown to be the key to the implementation of unsaturated soil mechanics. Numerous techniques have been proposed and studied for the assessment of the soil-water characteristic curves. These techniques range from direct laboratory measurement to indirect estimation from grain-size curves and knowledge-based database systems. The soil-water characteristic curve can then be used for the estimation of unsaturated soil property functions. Theoretically based techniques have been proposed for the estimation of soil property functions such as (i) coefficient of permeability, (ii) water storage modulus, and (iii) shear strength. Gradually these estimations are producing acceptable procedures for geotechnical engineering practices for unsaturated soils. The moisture flux ground surface boundary condition is likewise becoming a part of the solution of most problems involving unsaturated soils. The implementation process for unsaturated soils will still require years of collaboration between researchers and practicing geotechnical engineers.Key words: unsaturated soil mechanics, soil suction, unsaturated soil property functions, negative pore-water pressure, matric suction, soil-water characteristic curve.

Abstract:
In soil mechanics, student's models are classified as simple models that teach us unexplained elements of behaviour; an example is the Cam clay constitutive models of critical state soil mechanics (CSSM). ‘Engineer's models’ are models that elaborate the theory to fit more behavioural trends; this is usually done by adding fitting parameters to the student's models. Can currently unexplained behavioural trends of soil be explained without adding fitting parameters to CSSM models, by developing alternative student's models based on modern theories? Here I apply an alternative theory to CSSM, called ‘breakage mechanics’, and develop a simple student's model for sand. Its unique and distinctive feature is the use of an energy balance equation that connects grain size reduction to consumption of energy, which enables us to predict how grain size distribution (gsd) evolves—an unprecedented capability in constitutive modelling. With only four parameters, the model is physically clarifying what CSSM cannot for sand: the dependency of yielding and critical state on the initial gsd and void ratio.

Abstract:
The important role of the critical state theory in the modern soil mechanics is undeniable. It is true that the number of soil mechanics courses that not cover this subject is progressively decreasing. However, when the critical state theory is introduced, this topic cannot be seen as a simple extension of the classic soil mechanics. On the contrary, it is essential that some significant differences between modern and classic soil mechanics are adequately clarified and understood. This subject is a relevant objective of this paper, besides the large benefits brought by the modern soil mechanics. This discipline, like the mechanics applied to other materials, is fundamentally a preliminary learning to prepare for the professional practice of geotechnical engineering. When the main objective is to teach methods to solve the engineering problems (foundations, excavations, embankments, tunnels, etc.), the matters transmitted to the students are sometimes focused on the geotechnical engineering methods, where, nevertheless, soil mechanics, naturally, has an irreplaceable role. It is true that a design is unique in itself. However, all designs must have in common the same theoretical principles of soil mechanics, regardless of the particularities of the geotechnical design. This cannot be neglected in the modern soil mechanics teaching. Brief ideas concerning where and how soil mechanics has been taught, is also introduced. The fundamentals about plastic design of geotechnical structures are highlighted. The article ends calling attention to the outstanding contribution of the critical state theory for a unified understanding of the soil behavior. Its pedagogic benefits are invaluable.

Abstract:
Cracks in clayey soils are common during desiccation. The presence of cracks significantly alters the mechanical and hydraulic properties of soils. The objective of this article is to summarize the works on cracking behavior and mechanism in clayey soils related to desiccation. Historical field investigations, laboratory experimentations, identified mechanisms, and numerical approaches for modeling the process of cracking during desiccation are discussed. The experimental approaches for interpreting the mechanisms of cracking are systematically summarized and comprehensively reviewed based on the in situ observations and laboratory experimentations from the literature. The soil mechanics-based approaches resumed in this article according to the fracture mechanics theory and numerical results highlight the cracking development mechanism. Concerning the plasticity characteristics of clayey soils, researches on soil fracture mechanics should be paid more attention. More in situ experimentations and numerical researches are suggested for future researches to better understand the cracking behavior and mechanism in clayey soils related to desiccation.

Abstract:
Problematic soils such as expansive soils are common in Indonesia. There are several methods to overcome the damage caused by expansive soil, such as by mixing the soil with additives. Some researchers have conducted research by mixing additives into expansive soil (cement, lime, fly ash etc), which work to increase soil strength and reduce swelling. Considering that the people in Buraen Village of Kabupaten Kupang use white soil as a substitute for cement, where the white soil has chemical constituents almost the same as those owned by cement, and contain CaO as it has lime, it is necessary to do research to determine the effect of white soil on physical and mechanical properties of expansive soil, so it can be used as an additive. This research was conducted at Soil Mechanics Laboratory, Civil Engineering Department, Engineering Faculty, Diponegoro University, Semarang.with soil sample from Godong, Central Java and white soil in Buraen Village of Kupang Regency, which purpose to find out the change of physical and mechanical properties of expansive soil that have been given some variation of mixture of white soil to the dry weight of the soil, with optimum moisture content from standard Proctor test results. The results of this study indicate that white soil can be used as an additive and the use of OMC for mixing is the OMC of expansive soil.

Abstract:
In the present paper a simulation framework is presented coupling the mechanics of fluids and solids to study the contact erosion phenomenon. The fluid is represented by the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) and the soil particles are modeled using the Discrete Element Method (DEM). The coupling law considers accurately the momentum transfer between both phases. A soil composed of particles of two distinct sizes is simulated by the DEM and then hydraulically loaded with an LBM fluid. It is observed how the hydraulic gradient compromises the stability of the soil by pushing the smaller particles into the voids between the largest ones. The hydraulic gradient is more pronounced in the areas occupied by the smallest particles due to a reduced constriction size, which at the same time increases the buoyancy acting on them. At the mixing zone, where both particles sizes coexist, the fluid transfers its momentum to the small particles, increasing the erosion rate in the process. The results offer new insights into the erosion and suffusion processes, which could be used to better predict and design structures on hydraulically loaded soils.

Abstract:
A numerical model to simulate the mechanical behavior of soils was introduced in Part 1 of this paper (also published in this issue). Detailed information about the analytical model were presented, where the critical state theory for soil mechanics was considered in the context of the elastoplastic formulation. Moreover, an efficient numerical formulation to deal with nonlinear applications was also presented, featuring important characteristics such as reduced integration techniques, explicit integration of the constitutive equation and a corotational formulation for the kinematical description of the continuum. In this second part of the present work, the numerical model proposed in the previous paper is applied to some classical examples of soil mechanics to demonstrate the applicability of the present formulation. Effects of a geometrically nonlinear approach over the numerical predictions are investigated and comparisons are performed taking into account results obtained by using a geometrically linear model. In addition, some comparisons are also carried out considering evaluations performed with different constitutive formulations in order to observe the mechanical behavior of the soil mass under different constitutive assumptions.

Abstract:
In recent years, biogeotechnology has been introduced as a novel and environmentally friendly technique for soil improvement. The need to address global warming and the adverse environmental effects of the chemical additives have led to the emergence and development of the techniques which use calcite producing microorganisms in order to improve soil mechanical properties. While the effects of microbial induced calcite precipitation (MICP) on the hydraulics and mechanics of saturated coarse-grained soils have been well examined and studied, there is not yet much information on the effects these microorganisms would have on the unsaturated soil mechanical behaviour. The first step, in this regard, is to understand the effect of the processes involved in the MICP on the soil retention properties. Soil water suction is a key factor controlling soil hydraulic and mechanical behaviour. In this study, the influence of MICP on the soil total suction in an unsaturated fine-grained soil sample has been explored using filter paper experiment. The results of this study revealed that by increasing the amount of bacterial solution, the soil saturation-total suction curves are significantly affected. The soil water retention changes are attributed to the change in double layer thickness as well as the precipitation of calcite crystals.

Abstract The rheological behaviour of frozen soils depends on a number of factors and is complex. Stress and temperature histories as well as the actual composition of the frozen soil are only some aspects that have to be considered when analysing the mechanical response. Recent improvements in measuring methods for laboratory investigations as well as new theoretical models have assisted in developing an improved understanding of the thermo-mechanical processes at play within frozen soils and representation of their response to a range of perturbations. This review summarises earlier work and the current state of knowledge in the field of frozen soil research. Further, it presents basic concepts as well as current research gaps. Suggestions for future research in the field of frozen soil mechanics are also made. The goal of the review is to heighten awareness of the complexity of processes interacting within frozen soils and the need to understand this complexity when developing models for representing this behaviour.

Abstract:
Intelligent compaction involves using instrumented rollers to provide real-time monitoring of the compacted ground using sensors such as accelerometers and GPS. This technology has the potential to improve productivity and uniformity in construction but its advancement is currently impeded due toinaccurate estimation of the physical ground properties, such as dry density, and the absence of robust quantitative models to predict the effect of compaction on the long-term performance of unsaturated soils under repeated loads. In this study, the compaction of the soil layers and subsequent deformations under repeated traffic loads are simulated by using an advanced computational framework and model for unsaturated soils. By employing an effective stress concept, the presented computational approach allows a unified description of soils at various degrees of saturation. In addition, the model can capture plastic deformations at the initiation of loading and thereby offer accurate predictions of soil behaviour under cyclic loads. Several numerical examples will be provided to demonstrate how the initial states of compacted soils affect the compaction efficiency and the long-term performance of compacted soils.

Soil mechanical fully understanding requires considering a three dimensional approach, including soil response under the second principal stress and its potential anisotropy. In order to achieve such soil mechanical understanding, a true triaxial apparatus might be used. Therefore, in the present research an automated true triaxial apparatus was developed comprising its cubical cell, data acquisition and stress control systems. The manufactured apparatus was validated by means a laboratory test campaign where true triaxial test responses were compared to standard drained triaxial tests. True triaxial and standard drained triaxial tests were carried out on both naturally and artificially cemented soils. Results were gathered and compared. A soil mechanical compatibility was observed when test results of the newest true triaxial equipment were compared to test results obtained from a well validated standard triaxial apparatus. Thereby, the present paper reports an affordable successful true triaxial apparatus development demonstrating its efficiency for regular soil mechanical tests. Finally, a full stress rosette was established for a uniform fine sand where some small anisotropy was detected.

The results of determining the moisture content, density, hardness and resistance to various deformations of soils after harvesting winter wheat are presented. The basic principles and methods of classical mechanics, mathematical analysis and statistics were used in this study. Studies have found that, in the layer 0-30, the soil moisture for ten days after harvesting winter cereals decreases by 12.1-16.3%, and the soil hardness increases by 10.7-16.4% and are 3.22-5.14 MPa. At the same time, at an average humidity of 12-14%, the resistance of the soil to breakage and torsion, respectively, is 1.3-1.8 and 1.0-1.1 times higher than the resistance of the soil to shear. The resistance of the soil to shear is 87.9 kPa, and to breakage and torsion-69.7 and 78.6 kPa, respectively.

By the means of analysis of the data attained by the methods of field exploration, laboratory test and testing in-situ, the physical and mechanical properties of the residual diorite in Jinan were studied deeply. It is proved that the stratigraphic section of the soil can be classified as two layers on the perpendicular direction. Considering the inhomogeneity of the residual soil mass and the widely divergence of the value of mechanics properties, the suggestion value of c, Φ , a, Es, fak were put forward for further guiding the engineering practice , on the base of physics and mechanics properties tests and the region practice experience. At the same time, it is pointed out that, at that region, the interlayer and inhomogeneity of the weathering layers should be emphasized in the process of projecting and constructing when the residual diorite acts as the foundation of the construction or one of the geologic layers.

Abstract:
Models will be presented for fractal structures appearing naturally in soils. On the one hand, we discuss the opening of brittle media via hydraulic fracturing at constant pressure using a square lattice beam model with disorder. We consider the case in which only beams under tension can break, and discuss under which conditions the resulting cracks may develop fractal patterns. The stress field of the fractal cracks is visualized by photoelastic fringes. Then we present a modelization for a fluid penetrating under a pressure gradient into a fractal crack which it is itself opening. To do this, we investigate invasion percolation fingers in a quenched medium in which the randomness has a gradient corresponding to the density of microcracks that arise in a self-organized way around a large crack.

Abstract:
The basic position (category) of the new soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering, are set out in hierarchical order and systematized. The article gives the fundamental differences of new developments on existing, including the new classification of the ground state (compaction — normalnouplotnenny — nedouplotnenny), geotechnical model (geomassiv — the foundation — building), weight of the soil (assessment γh in situ), the pore pressure (education element and evolution of the lithosphere), analogue-discrete soil model (frail body with an infinite elastic modulus), Young’s modulus (modulus of elasticity), capillary soil model (beaded capillaries and capillaries Zhomena), the effect Kulachkina-Radkevich (pore pressure may be lower than atmospheric pressure, load-bearing capacity (Gersevanov and acoustics in the ground), the acoustics in geotechnics (continuity, integrity, strength and geometry of the pile, and others). The analytical and experimental data in various regions of Russia and abroad are given.
