This paper introduces a new technique that enables considering the impact of soil fabric on microstructure of internally unstable gap-graded soil. The influence of soil fabric on erodibility of fine particles was studied by transferring the real soil
The behaviour of gap-graded granular materials – that is, mixtures of coarse and cohesionless finer grains with measurable differences in particle size – does not always conform to established frameworks of sand behaviour. Prior research has reve

Unsaturated constant water content triaxial compression tests with suction measurement using an Imperial College Tensiometer, and saturated consolidated undrained tests were carried out on reconstituted Brickearth, a naturally unsaturated clayey silt

The peak shear strength rules of transversely isotropic soils are stress state dependent and dependent on relative orientation between bedding plane and principal stress. Accordingly, the shear strength of transversely isotropic soils exhibits two pr

A novel implicit integration scheme for the Discrete Element Method (DEM) based on the variational integrator approach is presented. The numerical solver provides a fully dynamical description that, notably, reduces to an energy minimisation scheme i

In recent years, civil engineers have started to use discrete-element modelling to simulate large-scale soil volumes thanks to technological improvements in both hardware and software. However, existing procedures to prepare ‘representative element

The slurry filtration process at a tunnel face plays an important role in supporting pressure transmission, which is crucial to the stability of a tunnel face during shield tunneling. In this paper, a series of coupled computational fluid dynamics (C

The combined influence of density and stress-induced fabric anisotropy on the nature of stress transmission in gap-graded soils with cohesionless fines has been explored using the discrete element method (DEM). Various particle size ratios and fines
One of the leading causes of dam failure is internal erosion. The impact of erosion of non-plastic fine particles, known as suffusion, on the soil structure and strength has been studied experimentally. However, influences including sample size have

It is believed that the relative density (Dr) can affect the internal stability of the gap-graded soils and hence the erosion of their fine particles (i.e. susceptibility to suffusion). This paper investigates the influence of Dr on the contribution
