Reasonable use of coral as concrete aggregate can solve the shortage of raw materials for
islands engineering construction and effectively reduce the costs and energy consumption …

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

Understanding the effect of particle size on the shear strength of granular materials is
important for geotechnical design and construction. However, previous studies show …

One-dimensional compression tests on quartz sands treated by microbially induced
carbonate precipitation (MICP) were carried out to evaluate the effects of gradation and …

Calcareous sand is a typical problematic marine sediment because of its angular and
porous particles. The effects of internal pores on the mechanical properties of calcareous …

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 …

This paper presents the results of a study on the evolution of particle shape in carbonate
sands that underwent different degrees of particle breakage. Carbonate sand specimens …

Although particle corner breakage has been proved to be the primary mode of particle
breakage for coral sand, current studies of pile penetration have continued to present the …

Compressibility of granular materials depends on its initial density and is significantly
affected by particle breakage, especially at high stress levels. In this study, a simple …

The influence of particle shape on the mechanics of sand is widely recognized, especially in
mineral processing and geomechanics. However, most existing continuum theories for …
