    Właściwości gruntów pylastych okolic Wrocławia - badania wstępne
    (Wydawnictwa AGH, 2008) Stróżyk, Joanna
    Preliminary edometer tests of silty soils - loesses from Wrocław area were presented. The coefficient of collapse value i/mp and effective yield stresses value were determined. The YSR were finally estimated. The calculated value of i/mp was less than 0,02 - i/pm = 0,016, so examined soils are not collapsing type. The YSR values changed together with the soil sample saturation - for Sr = 1 value of YSR = 1,45, and for Sr = 0,35 value of YSR = 0,95. They were noticed that the state of the consolidation of soils is changed after saturating from overconsolidated to normally consolidated state.
