Long-Term Strength of Porous Geomaterials by a Micromechanical Model considering Alternate Wetting and Drying Condition by Jin Zhang, Shirong Fu, Tao Ni, Bei Han, Chong Shi

“…The cyclic responses are separated as a pure hydrostatic part under compressive/tensive loads and an additional deviatoric part to capture shear effects. The reduction of the long-term strength due to inner water pressure is observed by the illustration of obtained macroscopic criteria with respect to various load parameters. …”
