A simple permanent deformation model of rockfill materials
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 ...

Discrete element simulation of crushable rockfill materials
A discrete element method was used to study the evolution of particle crushing in a rockfill sample subjected to triaxial shear. A simple procedure was developed to generate clusters with arbitrary shapes, which resembled real rockfill particles.

Testing and modeling of rockfill materials: A review
AbstractThe research development of rockfill materials (RFM) was investigated by a series of large-scale triaxial tests. It is observed that confining pressure and particle breakage play important roles in the mechanical property, dilatancy relation and constitutive model of RFM.

Gradation design method for rockfill materials based on fractal theory
According to the fractal theory, the fractal distribution formula of gradation for rockfill materials is deduced. The field gradation data of six dams with clay core and five 200 m-high CFRDs are used to verify the relevant achievements. The result shows
