Steven F. Bartlett, 2010 CSSM for Dummies Page 1 Background Thursday, March 11, 2010 11:43 AM In an attempt to advance soil testing techniques, Kenneth Harry Roscoe of Cambridge University, in the late forties and early fifties, developed a simple shear apparatus in which his successive students attempted to study the changes in conditions in the shear zone both in sand and in clay soils. In 1958 a study of the yielding of soil based on some Cambridge data of the simple shear apparatus tests, and on much more extensive data of triaxial tests at Imperial College, London, led to the publication of the critical state concept (Roscoe, Schofield Wroth 1958). Subsequent to this 1958 paper, concepts of plasticity were introduced by Schofield and published later in a classic text boo
