Table 2
Initial tangent modulus of mucky soil under K0 consolidation unloading condition.
| Mucky soil | Confining pressure (kPa) | Initial tangent modulus (kPa) |
| Lateral unloading | 50 | 2.17 × 104 | 100 | 2.68 × 104 | 200 | 3.57 × 104 | Axial unloading | 50 | 4.55 × 104 | 100 | 6.67 × 104 | 200 | 1.32 × 105 |
