Effects of Particle Shape and Microstructure on Strength and Dilatancy During a Numerical Direct Shear Test
ABSTRACT: Discrete element method offers insights into the soil behaviour at the microscopic level. In this investigation, a series of numerical direct shear tests is carried out by a three-dimensional discrete element code PFC. The size of the shear box is 6 cm long, 3 cm wide and 4 cm high. Non-spherical shaped particles are created by joining primary constitutive spherical balls together wit...
متن کاملShear wave propagation in jointed rock: state of stress
The mechanical characteristics and orientation of joints determine the behaviour of rock masses, including the strength, the stiffness, and all forms of conduction and diffusion. Furthermore, the preferential orientation of joints renders the medium anisotropic. In turn, these properties affect the velocity and damping of propagating elastic waves. The purpose of this study is to investigate th...
متن کاملSeismic Wave Propagation in Fractured Carbonate Rock
Laboratory experiments were performed on cubic samples of Austin Chalk to investigate the effect of fabric-induced anisotropy on the interpretation of fracture specific stiffness. The experimental results found that the fabric-induced layering complicates the interpretation of fracture specific stiffness. Seismic measurements from a sample with small layers (i.e., spacing and thickness) show th...
متن کاملConstant Q-Wave Propagation and Attenuation
A linear model for attenuation of waves is presented, with Q, or the portion of energy lost during each cycle or wavelength, exactly independent of frequency. The wave propagation is completely specified by two parameters, e.g., Q and Co, a phase velocity at an arbitrary reference frequency w0. A simple exact derivation leads to an expression for the phase velocity c as a function of frequency:...
متن کاملValidation and application of empirical shear wave velocity models based on standard penetration test
Shear wave velocity is a basic engineering tool required to define dynamic properties of soils. In many instances it may be preferable to determine Vs indirectly by common in-situ tests, such as the Standard Penetration Test. Many empirical correlations based on the Standard Penetration Test are broadly classified as regression techniques. However, no rigorous procedure has been published for c...
