On the effect of grain size on rock behavior under cyclic loading by distinct element method
It is well-known that the mechanical behavior of rocks under cyclic loading is much different from static loading conditions. In most constructions, the load applied to structures is within dynamic ranges. That’s why a great deal of attention has been paid towards this field in order to identify the dynamic behavior of rocks in more details. Nevertheless, the nature of dynamic failure in rocks ...
متن کاملDynamics of dry granular avalanches.
A fine analysis of the statistics of dry granular avalanches in a rotating drum setup reveals that, beyond the fluctuations, the angle at which an avalanche ends is correlated experimentally to the angle at which the avalanche starts. This correlation resulting from inertia defines an intermediate "neutral" angle that characterizes the corresponding granular pile. In addition, an intensive stud...
متن کاملRock Slope Stability Analysis Using Discrete Element Method
Rock slope stability depends very much on the strength features of the rock and the geometrical and strength characteristics of the discontinuities (e.g., roughness, wall strength and persistence). Since a rock mass is not a continuum, its behavior is dominated by such discontinuities as faults, joints and bedding planes. Also, Rock slope instability is a major hazard for human activities and o...
متن کاملAnalysis of milling of dry compacted ribbons by distinct element method
Fine cohesive powders are often dry granulated to improve their flowability. Roller compaction is commonly used to produce dense ribbons which are then milled. The material properties of the powder and the conditions in the roller compactor affect the strength of the ribbons, however there is no method in the literature to predict the size distribution of the product of ribbon milling. Here we ...
متن کاملApproximate estimates of fracture speeds for dry slab avalanches
[1] Dry slab avalanches release by propagating shear fractures. It has been suggested that slab wave or fracture speed on horizontal terrain is consistent with the propagation of a flexural wave in the slab. In this note, an alternate proposal is made. Namely, it is proposed that the fracture speed is consistent with dynamic crack propagation speeds from other materials. The theory is compared ...
