Effects of compaction on soil undrained shear strength deteriorating during undrained cyclic loading and controlling seismic stability of embankment

Effects of compaction on the undrained shear strength of saturated earth-fill dam materials are presented. Poorly and well compacted saturated soils may exhibit undrained shear strengths, respectively, significantly lower and higher than corresponding drained shear strength and this trend is amplifi...
