| The long-term behaviour of dilatancy of rock salt is investigated according to the dilatancy boundary theory and an approximate long-term dilatancy boundary range is obtained. |
| A ring of dry sand around foot steps seen while walking though wet sandy beach is caused by dilatancy of the wet sand. |
| The observed dilatancy yielded rather cyclic mobility than liquefaction. |
| It also distinguishes between two types of hardening, namely shear hardening and compression hardening and incorporates soil dilatancy and a yield cap. |
| Association with vertical joints suggests that the deformation is progressively evolving towards dilatancy with increasing tectonically induced differential stress. |
| Yet other experiments suggest that the change in strength at the CMF is due to dilatancy hardening at low melt fractions. |
