There has been a flurry of interest over the past decade in the study of impact and
penetration into granular media. A wealth of knowledge has resulted from these efforts. This …

Degradation of geomaterials, that is, particle breakage, can be harmful to the full life-cycle
stability of practical engineering; for example, rockfill dam, energy-pile foundation, railway …

The particle breakage and compressibility behavior of sands treated with microbially
induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) has been investigated using oedometric …

Detailed particle breakage adjacent to a pile has great influence on the settlement and
bearing capacity of a pile foundation. Before the pile test, coral sand was divided into …

Sand response depends on particle morphology (size and shape). In geotechnical research
and practice, size is typically assessed by sieve analysis and particle shapes are …

For the deformation and evaluation of reservoir accumulative landslide, it is of great
significance to study the strength characteristics of slip zone soils under rainfall and …

In this study oedometric compression tests of hydrocarbon coke, Fontainebleau sand and
silica sand are simulated in three dimensions using breakable particles. The method adapts …

Seabed soil losses, eg, seabed trench and general scour, greatly affect the bearing capacity
and failure mode of caisson anchors. In this paper, a series of centrifuge model tests have …

Based on the fact that natural soil and transparent soil have similar geotechnical properties,
this paper describes a device used in hydraulic gradient tests to measure the displacement …

Corner breakage was less analyzed in pile–soil interaction research, causing the
mechanism of particular pile load behaviors in coral sand to remain unclear. This study …
