Notice of Retraction

IOS Press has retracted the following publication from its online content:

[Journal of Computational Methods and Engineering 20(3) (2020), 697–713, DOI: 10.3233/JCM-193957] Experimental study on deformation characteristics of collapsible loess under isotropic stressYajun Jia ${}^{\text{a,b}}$ , Cunli Chen ${}^{\text{a,*}}$ and Dengfei Zhang ${}^{\text{a}}$ ${}^{\text{a}}$ Civil Engineering and Architecture Institute, Xi’an University of Technology, Xi’an, Shaanxi 710048, China ${}^{\mathrm{\text{b}}}$ Gansu Forestry Technological College, Tianshui, Gansu 741020, China

The article is almost identical to the following article, written by the same authors:

[Mechanics of Advanced Materials and Structures 27(14) (2020), 1278–1288, DOI: 10.1080/15376494. 2019.1684604]

The abovementioned article can be found on: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/15376494. 2019.1684604

Reason for this duplicate publication is that the Editors were unaware of the article in Mechanics of Advanced Materials and Structures. The error is much regretted by IOS Press.
