One-Dimensional Large-Strain Nonlinear Consolidation of Overconsolidated Clays with a Threshold Hydraulic Gradient

<div>Influences of preconsolidation pressure on the dissipation of excess pore water pressure. (a) Curves of excess pore water pressure versus the Lagrangian coordinate <i>a</i> when <i>T</i><sub>v</sub> = 0.5. (b) Curves of excess pore water pressure versus time factor <i>T</i><sub>v</sub> at <i>z</i> = 10 m.</div>
