Influence of non-saturation and particle size distribution on the stiffness of granite materials

In this paper, the stiffness of two materials with the same geological origin is presented, a silty sand, called Perafita sand (D50=0.36mm) and a granite aggregate (0/12.5, D50=0.52mm). The stiffness in very small strains ( <10-5) of the compacted materials is studied by means of precision triaxi...
