Abstract:Particle crushing is an important factor affecting the mechanical characteristics of calcareous sand, but at present, most of relative studying methods rely on physical experiments. In order to study the influence of particle crushing characteristics on the micromechanics of calcareous sand, the 14-fragment replacement method satisfying the Apollonian distribution is used to simulate the calcareous sand particles, and the fragment replacement method (FRM) is used to simulate the particle crushing. The three-di… 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.
