Abstract:Particle breakage was reported to have great influence on the mechanical property of granular materials. However, limited studies were conducted to quantify the detailed effects of relative density and initial grading on the particle breakage behaviour of granular materials under different confining pressures. In this study, a series of monotonic drained triaxial tests were performed on isotropically consolidated granular materials with four different initial gradings and relative densities. It is observed tha… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
