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 کاملCutaneous granular cell tumor: case report
Background: Granular cell tumor (Abrikossoff’s tumor) is a rare and slow-growing tumor of the soft tissue. Originated from the Schwann cells, it is often a benign tumor, but it can be malignant in 1-3% of the cases. Malignant cases can cause significant morbidity and mortality. It may develop in many anatomic locations, especially in the head and neck region, and also in skin and subcutaneous t...
متن کاملInternal states of model isotropic granular packings. III. Elastic properties.
In this third and final paper of a series, elastic properties of numerically simulated isotropic packings of spherical beads assembled by different procedures, as described in the first companion paper, and then subjected to a varying confining pressure, as reported in the second companion paper, are investigated. In addition to the pressure, which determines the stiffness of contacts because o...
