Abstract
The steady state of deformation was analyzed for a clayey sand.
The use of lubricated end platens was evaluated and proved to reduce the
scatter in steady state data. The effect of different data corrections
in a steady state analysis was also evaluated. For this investigation
the parabolic area assumption better approximated the deformed specimen
shape than the right cylinder assumption. It was concluded that the use
of different area corrections greatly influences the slope and position
of the steady state line.
