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 ...
متن کاملEffects of Ballast Degradation on Shear Strength Behavior from Large-scale Triaxial Tests
Ballast, typically comprising large sized aggregate particles with uniform gradation, is an essential layer in the railroad track substructure. Functions of ballast include facilitating load distribution and drainage, maintaining track geometry and track stability, and providing track resilience and noise absorption. Throughout its service life, ballast goes through changes in gradation and par...
متن کاملDiscrete Element Modeling of Railroad Ballast Settlement
This paper presents findings of a railroad ballast Discrete Element Modeling (DEM) research study focused on investigating ballast settlement under repeated wheel loading. In this approach, the ballast layer is modeled as an assembly of aggregate particles, AREMA No. 24 ballast gradation with different shapes and angularities and rough surface textures. The study matrix considered three differe...
متن کاملbehavior of rockfill materials in triaxial compression testing
this paper studies thoroughly and deeply the results of about one hundred triaxial compression tests on thirty types of rockfill materials. the materials are categorized in accordance with their particles shape (angular / rounded) and gradation characteristics. the main tool of the study is the hyperbolic model developed by duncan and chang. the focus of the study is on the variations of deform...
متن کاملDiscontinuous Deformation Analysis of Seismic Failure Behavior in a Narrow Area of Railroad Ballast
The seismic failure behavior of railroad ballasts in response to earthquakes was analyzed using Discontinuous Deformation Analysis.Several sinusoidal waves with different frequencies and accelerations were inputted into the discontinuous numerical model of a railroad ballast ,which consists of an assemblage of polygonal crushed stones,rails,sleepers and a roadbed .The dependencies of railroad f...
