Time-dependent behaviour of sand with different fine contents under oedometric loading
Bibliographic record
Abstract
To characterize the effects of creep, strain rate, and relaxation in granular soils, different sands have been studied under oedometric loading. The tests were analysed in the framework of the isotache concept. The results show increasing creep rates with increasing vertical stresses and a strong reduction of the creep rate upon unloading. A lower void ratio leads to less creep. Evaluation of the ratio C α /C c , where C α is the creep coefficient and C c is the compression index, demonstrates considerable deviation from a constant soil-specific value for the sands. With increasing fine content, however, a constant soil-specific ratio has been found for a silty sand. In strain rate–controlled tests, a sand with low and a sand with significant content of nonplastic fines were compared. Constant rate of strain tests displayed practically no strain rate dependency for the sand with little fines and a well visible strain rate dependency for the very silty sand. Tests with stepwise change of strain rate showed non-isotache behaviour for the sand with little fines and isotache behaviour for the other. Stress-relaxation tests displayed an isochronous behaviour. The analysis of the three viscous effects in sands showed they cannot altogether be mathematically described in the framework of the isotache concept. A new compression model for the creep behaviour of sands is presented.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
