Quantifying stress-induced anisotropy using inter-void constrictions (2013)
Journal Article
Shire, T., O'Sullivan, C., Barreto, D., & Gaudray, G. (2013). Quantifying stress-induced anisotropy using inter-void constrictions. Géotechnique, 63(1), 85-91. https://doi.org/10.1680/geot.11.t.020

In particulate geomechanics it is common to quantify fabric anisotropy using contact and particle orientations. Measurement of void anisotropy is less common, most likely owing to the difficulties associated with defining individual voids. Here a Del...
