  • Abstract: Collection of M. D. Bolton's geotechnical research papers.
    It includes "The Strength and Dilatancy of Sands" paper (1986).
    .... "Extensive data of the strength and dilatancy of 17 sands in axisymmetric or plane strain at different densities and confining pressures are collated. The critical state angle
    of shearing resistance of soil which is shearing at constant
    volume is principally a function of mineralogy and can readily be determined experimentally within a margin of about 1 °, being roughly 33° for quartz and 40° for feldspar" ....
