Particle Crushing in Granular Assemblies

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2009
Idealised assemblies of equally sized spherical particles are subjected to a range of macroscopic compressive principal stresses and contact forces are determined. Stress fields within individual particles are studied and a failure criterion for brittle materials imposed indicating that crushing occurs when the maximum contact force reaches a threshold

A new probabilistic approach for predicting particle crushing in one-dimensional compression of granular soil

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 2014
This paper presents a new probability-based method for the prediction of particle crushing in the one-dimensional compression of granular soil. The method is comprised of a joint-probability particle crushing criterion that takes into account the ...

Compaction behaviour and particle crushing of a crushed sandstone particle mixture

European Journal of Environmental and Civil Engineering, 2014
The density-moisture curves for five crushed sandstone particle mixtures, with different grain size distribution curves, were determined by a standard compaction test. The values of the maximum dry density and optimum moisture content, deduced from the compaction tests, range from 2.04 to 2.11 g/cm3 and from 7.56 to 10.11%, respectively. The variations

Effects of particle size on compaction behavior and particle crushing of crushed sandstone–mudstone particle mixture

Environmental Earth Sciences, 2014
The compaction behavior and particle crushing during compaction of the crushed sandstone–mudstone particle mixture, which is used as a filling material, are investigated in the present study. The value of the maximum dry density, deduced from a standard compaction test, ranges from 2.08 to 2.13 g/cm3, and that of the optimum moisture content from 8.18 ...

Effects of mudstone particle content on compaction behavior and particle crushing of a crushed sandstone–mudstone particle mixture

Engineering Geology, 2013
Abstract The present study focuses on the compaction behavior and particle crushing, during the compaction, of a crushed sandstone–mudstone particle mixture. Compaction tests and sieve analysis tests, in laboratory, were performed. The effects of the mudstone particle content, by weight, on the maximum dry density, the optimum moisture content and ...

Particle-scale mechanics of sand crushing in compression and shearing using DEM [PDF]

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 2015
In this paper, the discrete element method is used to explore why differing amounts of breakage, quantified using Hardin's relative breakage parameter (Br), are associated with the critical state line (CSL) and the normal compression line (NCL) at ...
