Cyclic and monotonic undrained response of unsaturated filtered copper tailings
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This article studies the undrained behavior of filtered copper tailings in unsaturated conditions under monotonic and cyclic loading at controlled matric suction. Two dry densities with the same water content were used. The material behavior was studied in terms of the increase of saturation, the evolution of suction, and volumetric strain during the transition from unsaturated to saturated conditions. The results show that, during the shearing, suction decreases and the degree of saturation increases, regardless of the type of load applied (cyclic or monotonic). This effect is related to the volume reduction of the air phase during the transition to a fully saturated condition. In terms of undrained shear strength, the evolution of the material is studied in terms of the phase transformation line, comparing its location in saturated and unsaturated cases. Regarding the cyclic strength ratio, the unsaturated condition shows a higher value than the saturated case by about 26% and 58% for the high and low densities, respectively. However, when the volumetric strain is higher than 3% or the double amplitude axial strain exceeds 2%, a cyclic strain localization takes place, leading to an extension failure over the sample.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
