Influence of particle shape on sheared dense granular media
We study by means of molecular dynamics simulations of periodic shear cells, the influence of particle shape on the global mechanical behavior of dense granular media. Results at macro-mechanical level show that for large shear deformation samples with elongated particles, independent of their initial orientation, reach the same stationary value for both shear force and void ratio. At the micro...
متن کاملFabric and Deformation in Granular Materials
The paper presents results of numerical experiments on a large assembly of smooth circular disks. The assembly was subjected to quasi-static biaxial loading at small to moderate strains by using the Discrete Element Method. Unlike the usual particle-based and coordination number approaches, the fabric was locally measured in relation to the shapes and orientations of voids. Deformation was meas...
متن کاملThe Initial and Induced Fabric Anisotropy of Granular Materials
A granular material is most likely to possess an initial anisotropic structure due to the depositional process or the previous stress history. There is also induced fabric anisotropy during shearing. Concerning the significant influence of fabric anisotropy on the stress-strain behaviour of a granular material, in-depth investigation on the two kinds of fabric anisotropy is essential. Initial f...
متن کاملInfluence of particle characteristics on granular friction
[1] We report on laboratory experiments designed to illuminate grain-scale deformation mechanisms within fault gouge. We vary particle size distribution, grain and surface roughness, and gouge layer thickness to better understand how grain sliding, rolling, dilation, and compaction affect the strength and stability of granular fault gouge. The experiments employed the double direct shear testin...
متن کاملInfluence of particle shape on shear band formation of quasistatic granular media
We study the influence of particle shape on the shear band formation in quasistatic granular media in biaxial compression test using two-dimensional Distinct Element Method (DEM). Elliptical-shaped particles are used to study the influence of particle shape. We also report an experimental verification to check the ability of DEM to model elliptical particles created by the clustering technique....
