Soil at the liquid limit will have a consistency index of 0, while soil at the plastic limit will have a consistency index of 1 and if W > LL, Ic is negative. The curvature (nonlinearity) of the failure envelope occurs because the dilatancy of closely packed soil particles depends on confining pressure. What I'd do is to assume variety of phi to get determine the FS. It is the ratio of plasticity index to the flow index.

(It was called "Coulomb's equation" by Karl von Terzaghi in 1942.) This is an intrinsic property of a substance that is caused by the shape and structure of its molecules which makes the distribution of orbiting electrons irregular when molecules get close to one another, creating electrical attraction that can maintain a macroscopic structure such as a water drop. The plasticity index is the size of the range of water contents where the soil exhibits plastic properties. *Eng-Tips's functionality depends on members receiving e-mail. <> The SPT N values obtained from different sites are observed to vary between 4 and 70. Continuously, the friction angle f was calculated by using the equation f = 45 + f /2 and compared with the one which was drawn from Mohr circles. It depends on a number of factors, the main ones being: Volume of material (like for fissured clays or rock mass). Adhesionis any attraction process between dissimilar molecular species that can potentially bring them in close contact. The range of the angle of internal friction and cohesion obtained from the tests are 2 to 43 degrees and 3 to 82 kN/m2 respectively. In recent work, he has collaborated with neutron research scientists to apply non-conventional methods, such as small- and ultra-small-angle neutron scattering (SANS/USANS) techniques, to rigorously characterize the pore structure of UG/ULO reservoirs and to determine open versus closed porosity, which are important parameters for quantifying .

I think it's important that this research exists, but for practical correlation to actual friction angle on a project (or to justify a lab value, I'm not sure, there's much value. The shrinkage limit (SL) is the water content where further loss of moisture will not result in more volume reduction. As the friction coefficient increases the initial plastic zone moves closer to the surface and unconstrained plastic flow occurs at a lower normal pressure. Variation of effective friction angle with plasticity index (PI) for NC clays ( EPRI, 1990 ).
