Interpretation of the stiffness and permeability of Sand-Kaolin mixtures in the framework of homogenization

This study deals with the behaviour of mixtures of sand and saturated kaolin paste considered as composite materials made of permeable and deformable (with non-linear behaviour) matrix (the kaolin paste) with rigid and impervious inclusions (the sand grains). Oedometric and permeability tests conduc...
