Constitutive Modelling of Wetting Deformation of Rockfill Materials
In this paper, the constitutive framework of hypoplasticity is used to model long-term deformations and stress relaxations of weathered and moisture sensitive rockfill materials. The state of weathering of the material is represented by a so-called solid hardness in the sense of a continuum description.

Study on overtopping-induced breach mechanisms of concrete-face rockfill dams
Overtopping failure of concrete-face rockfill dams involves a complex water-soil-structure coupling mechanism. Through flume model experiments and based on the theories and methods of water-sand dynamics, soil mechanics, and material mechanics, this ...

Gradation evolution model based on particle breakage characteristics for rockfill materials
Particle crushing will change the density and gradation curves of geotechnical materials, and then influence their stress-strain behavior. The proposed gradation evolution model, based on the particle breakage characteristics of natural rocks, is to ...

Strength and deformation characteristics of rockfill materials
In the last years, some authors have found to set up rheological models for rockfill materials. This article analyses the most important literature on the subject some suggestions based on laboratorial tests performed in LNEC are made. Three questions are particularly stressed: the study of deformability based on considerations about the ...
