On Dilalant Volumetric Strain of Rock in Triaxial Compression Test

Investigation of Stress-Strain Behavior of Plastic Concrete Using Monotonic Triaxial Compression Tests

In this paper, the mechanical behavior of plastic concrete being used in the cut-off walls of earth dams has been studied. To do the task, triaxial compression tests on the specimens in various ages and mix designs under different confining pressures have been done and the stress-strain behavior of such materials and their strength parameter changes has been experimentally investigated. It has ...

Correcting the stress-strain curve in hot compression test using finite element analysis and Taguchi method

In the hot compression test friction has a detrimental influence on the flow stress through the process and therefore, correcting the deformation curve for real behavior is very important for both researchers and engineers. In this study, a series of compression tests were simulated using Abaqus software. In this study, it has been employed the Taguchi method to design experiments by the factor...

Numerical Investigation on the Reference Crushing Stress of Granular Materials in Triaxial Compression Test

Particle crushing dominates the deformation behaviour of granular materials under significantly high compressive and shear stress. A proposed constitutive model has been verified to predict crushing behaviour of granular materials with different crushability and adopted one kind of reference crushing stress. It is noted that no positive dilatancy of granular material in triaxial test occurs onc...
