Shakedown of unbound granular material
Compacted unbound granular materials are extensively used as sub-layer in pavement design. Most pavement design guides assume that they are responsible for the degradation and deformation of the roads and railways that they support. Biaxial tests are usually employed to investigate the elasto-plastic response of these materials to cyclic loading. A particularly interesting question is whether a...
متن کاملModular ratios for unbound granular pavement layers
Unbound granular pavement layers show a characteristic increase in moduli from the subgrade to the surface. The ratio of moduli between successive layers provides a direct and effective measure of pavement quality that makes due allowance for site conditions and seasonal effects beyond a contractor’s control. The modular ratio is therefore an effective indicator for performance-based specificat...
متن کاملEffects of Aggregate Gradation on Resilient Modulus and CBR in Unbound Granular Materials
Resilient modulus and California Bearing Ratio (CBR) in unbound granular materials are the key technical characteristics of layers in a flexible pavement design. Among the factors affecting these two parameters, the aggregate gradation is the most important. Using particle size distribution curve developed by AASHTO, together with other considerations mentioned in the related regulations have y...
متن کاملUnbound material characterisation with Nottingham asphalt tester
The resilient modulus (MR) of unbound materials is a required input in most of the mechanistic-based pavement analysis and design process and has a significant effect on the projected pavement performance in the mechanistic– empirical pavement design guide programme or AASHTOWare DARwin. The Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT) recently acquired a servo-hydraulic dynamic loading materials te...
متن کاملShear Deformation in Granular Material
An investigation into the properties of granular materials is undertaken via numerical simulation. These simulations highlight that frictional contact, a defining characteristic of dry granular materials, and interfacial debonding, an expected deformation mode in plastic bonded explosives, must be properly modeled. Frictional contact and debonding algorithms have been implemented into FLIP, a p...
