Dynamic Properties of Hydrophobic Sand as a Filling …
Dynamic shear modulus of DMDCS-sand is higher than degraded DMDCS-sand, however, dynamic shear modulus of TO-sand is less than degraded TO-sand. As shown in Fig. 1 (b), shear strain exponentially increases with the damping ratio. The outdoor weathering resulted in a negligible change of damping ratio in DMDCS-sand.
