Imperfection Sensitivity for Size Effect of Granular Materials

the effect of esp materials on medical studentsreading proficiency

چکیده این تحقیق " مواد درسی " را به عنوان یکی از بحث برانگیزترین موضوعات آموزش زبان تلقی کرده و درتلاش است به سه سوال عمده پاسخ دهد: 1) آیا بکارگیری جزوات گرداوری شده توسط گروهی از مدرسین تاثیر بسزایی در میزان توانش خواندن و درک متون انگلیسی دانشجویان پزشکی دارد؟ 2) آیا استفاده از مواد درسی اصلی( بین المللی )، توانش خواندن و درک متون انگلیسی دانشجویان پزشکی را به طور چشمگیری تحت تاثیر قرار م...

Imperfection-sensitivity and Catastrophe Theory

Shear-driven size segregation of granular materials: modeling and experiment.

Granular materials segregate by size under shear, and the ability to quantitatively predict the time required to achieve complete segregation is a key test of our understanding of the segregation process. In this paper, we apply the Gray-Thornton model of segregation (developed for linear shear profiles) to a granular flow with an exponential shear profile, and evaluate its ability to describe ...

Particle Size Effect on Shear Strength of Granular Materials in Direct Shear Test

The effect of particle size on shear strength of granular materials are investigated using direct shear tests. Small direct shear test (60 mm by 60 mm by 24 mm deep) were conducted for particles passing the sieves with opening size of 2.36 mm. Meanwhile, particles passing the standard 20 mm sieves were tested using large direct shear test (300 mm by 300 mm by 200 mm deep). The large direct shea...

Ratcheting of granular materials.

We investigate the quasistatic mechanical response of soils under cyclic loading using a discrete model of randomly generated convex polygons. This response exhibits a sequence of regimes, each one characterized by a linear accumulation of plastic deformation with the number of cycles. At the grain level, a quasiperiodic ratchetlike behavior is observed at the contacts, which excludes the exist...
