The Tensile Strength of Loess in Northwest China by Unconfined Penetration Test and the Distinct Element Simulation

The unconfined penetration test (UP test) is one of the indirect methods to measure the tensile strength of soils. Through a series of UP tests of undisturbed and remolded loess, the split angle (α) of the wedge body which was shaped in the process of the experiment was discussed. And then, the part...
