Experimental Studies to Evaluate the Effects of Different Unloading Stress Paths on Strength Properties of Unconsolidated Sands

The mechanical behavior of rocks under loading conditions depends on stress path and magnitude. With increasing load, rocks have an elasto-plastic behavior. Within the loading yield surface, constitutive models assume that rocks behave elastically and are independent of the stress path and magnitude...
