DESCRIPTION OF CLAY ANISOTROPY EMPLOYING THE CONCEPT OF DIRECTIONAL VARIATION OF POROSITY. NUMERICAL MODELS IN GEOMECHANICS. NUMOG III. PROCEEDINGS OF THE 3RD INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM HELD AT NIAGARA FALLS, CANADA, 8-11 MAY 1989

A theoretical framework is developed for describing the effects of inherent and induced anisotropy in normally consolidated clays. The framework incorporates a continuum measure of micro-structure evolution identified with the directional distribution of porosity/void ratio of the material.(a) for the covering abstract of this conference see IRRD 824029.
