Instability of dilative sand

A type of pre-failure instability which occurs for medium loose to dense sand under fully drained conditions is studied in this paper. It is observed experimentally that when a specimen is sheared along a drained stress path involving a decrease in the effective mean stress, it becomes unstable afte...
