      Stress probes at different initial axi-symmetric (triaxial) stress states have been carried out to exhibit bifurcation domain in the Rendulic plane.

      A Rendulic plot is a plot representing the stress path for triaxial tests originally suggested by Rendulic (1937) and later developed by Henkel (1960).
    • 2013, Nayland G. Stanley-Wood, Enlargement and Compaction of Particulate Solids, →ISBN:
      The Rendulic contours in principal stress space showed that the stress paths taken were members of a family for both drained and undrained tests.
