One-dimensional volume change characteristics of sands under very low confining stresses
TL;DR: In this article, the authors deal with the very important problem of settlement and strength of liquefied loose sands and show that the stress-strain relationship is independent of the manner of liquidation.

Correlation between strengths and penetration resistances for gravelly soils
TL;DR: In this paper, high-quality undisturbed gravel samples were obtained by the in-situ freezing method at four sites and measured by using a large scale triaxial test apparatus.
