Laboratory studies on unconfined compressive strength of solid waste landfill liner material

There are three kinds of approaches on studying dynamic properties of coarse granular soils in laboratory: (1) test wave velocity and attenuation properties based on wave theory (ultrasonic and pulse technique); (2) test soil coefficients of stiffness and damping based on vibrate theory (resonant column triaxial test); (3) obtain the relationship of stress-strain directly based on cyclic loading tests such as cyclic triaxial test, hollow torsional test, simple shear test, torsinal simple shear test etc.
