Effects of Drying–Wetting Cycle and Fines Content on Hysteresis and Dynamic Properties of Granite Residual Soil under Cyclic Loading

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
In southern China, granite residual soil (GRS) is widely used as road base material. Thus, it is important to study the effects of hot and rainy climates and cyclic loads generated by trains on the dynamic properties of GRS.

Macro- and Micromechanical Assessment of the Influence of Non-Plastic Fines and Stress Anisotropy on the Dynamic Shear Modulus of Binary Mixtures

open access: yesFractal and Fractional, 2022
Resonant column tests were carried out on Hostun sand mixed with 5%, 10% and 20% non-plastic fines (defined as grains smaller than 0.075 mm) in order to quantify the combined influence of the void ratio (e), anisotropic stress state (defined as σv′/σh ...

Rock fragmentation size distribution control in blasting: a case study of blasting mining in Changjiu Shenshan limestone mine

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2023
Deep-hole bench blasting is the primary method for aggregate extraction in mines. However, factors such as complex geological conditions and suboptimal blasting parameters often result in uneven rock fragmentation and high fines content.

SWCC of Calcareous Silty Sand Under Different Fines Contents and dry Densities

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
Investigating the soil-water characteristics of calcareous soil has a great significance for preventing geological disasters on island-reefs as well as maintaining the foundation stability of hydraulic-filled island-reefs. In this study, calcareous silty

Effects of Fines Content and Plasticity on Index Properties and Hydraulic Conductivity of Coarse-Fine Mixtures

open access: yesJournal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 2022
Ten coarse-fine mixtures (CFM) (intermediate soils) having fines contents (FC) of 0%, 12%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and plasticity indices (PI) of 5% and 15% were prepared in the laboratory by mixing different fractions of gravel, sand, nonplastic silt, kaolin, and bentonite.

Effects of Fines Contents on Engineering Properties of Sand-Fines Mixtures

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2016
AbstractThis paper presents a detailed study focused on investigating the effects of fines content on the engineering properties of sand-fines mixtures. Specimens with a low-plastic fines content of 0, 15, 30 and 50% by weight were tested in static triaxial and consolidation tests to determine such parameters as compression index, internal friction ...

Effects of fines on undrained behaviour of sands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A series of monotonic and cyclic triaxial tests were performed on a sand with fines sourced from Christchurch, New Zealand. The sand was sieved and then mixed to give three soils with different fines contents.
