Mechanism of the post-suffusion mechanical response of gap-graded …

From Figs. 19 (b) and (c), it's evident that the eroded sample has a higher number of both existing and buckling F-F and C-F force chains compared to the reconstituted sample, but a lower number compared to the non-eroded sample during shearing. Additionally, due to suffusion, the void ratio of the sample increases from 0.46 …

Cracking behavior of asphalt pavement with a graded gravel …

There were 48 cracks in the semi-rigid base asphalt pavement model. For pavements with 10 cm and 15 cm thick graded broken stone base, the number of meso cracks was reduced to 9 and 32, respectively. It shows that the number of reflective cracks decreased after the graded crushed stone base was added to the pavement.
