buildup of strain and pore pressure in clays and plastic silts under cyclic loading, treated separately from sand liquefaction.

In geotechnical engineering, cyclic softening refers to buildup of strain and pore pressure in clays and plastic silts under cyclic loading, treated separately from sand liquefaction. This meaning comes from Boulanger (2007) in Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering.[1]
