Strength and stiffness parameters for hardening soil model of rockfill materials
Soils and Foundations, 2021 In recent years, an increasing number of rockfill dams have been constructed in many developing countries around the world. One difficulty in the engineering design and construction of rockfill dams is the characterisation of the rockfill materials ...

A simple permanent deformation model of rockfill materials
Water Science and Engineering, 2018 Existing experimental results have shown that using a semi-log linear relationship between the permanent volumetric strain and cyclic number underestimates the volumetric deformation of rockfill materials with a large cyclic number, and that the error ...

Fractures in non-homogeneous rockfill materials from a micromechanics perspective [PDF]
Journal of Hydraulic Structures, 2022 This study investigates particle breakage and cracks propagation of non-homogeneous rockfill materials, particularly conglomerates, from a microscale perspective. The conglomerate's materials were gathered from Masjed-E-Soleyman, MES, rockfill dam, Iran.

Unified modeling behavior of rockfill materials along different loading stress paths
Soils and Foundations, 2022 Rockfill materials used for dam construction show obvious stress path dependency during construction process. The constitutive model for rockfill materials are mainly established based on conventional triaxial test.

A Study of the Rockfill Material Behavior in Large-Scale Tests [PDF]
Civil Engineering Infrastructures Journal, 2013 Inspecting the behavior of the rockfill materials is of significant importance in analysis of rockfill dams. Since the dimensions of grains in such materials are greater than the conventional sizes suitable for soil mechanics tests, it is necessary to ...
