# Data repository

## Content

This dataset contains results of drained and undrained triaxial tests using clayey-silty sand.

The output of testing machine is stored in Hierarchical Data Format ([HDF5](https://www.hdfgroup.org/solutions/hdf5)). 
[HDF5](https://www.hdfgroup.org/solutions/hdf5/) files can be accessed by software tools like [HDFView](https://www.hdfgroup.org/download-hdfview) or coding languages, e.g. Python using package [`h5py`](https://docs.h5py.org/en/stable/index.html).
