Pre-compaction can occur as a result of a combination of soil settlement and the effect of field machinery operations and, therefore, provides some insight into the loading history of a soil. By limiting stress to below that which determined the pre-compaction, the risk of further damage to the soil
A response surface methodology which employs an orthogonal regression technique and a third-order correction was used to determine in situ engineering properties of an untilled and a tilled Yolo loam soil. The technique employed an elasto-plastic constitutive material model for soil with Drucker Pra
The majority of currently available analytical tools to predict ground stresses due to impact are based on linear springdashpot dynamic models. Although these simple models adequately represent stiff ground possessing linear visco-elastic behaviour, they suffer from two striking limitations when app
