Fabric and Particle Shape Influence on K 0 of Granular Materials
Abstract
This paper discusses the influence of fabric and particle shape on K 0-values of cohesionless materials using micromechanical analysis and the results from a series of tests. Following a simple analysis using Harr's probabilistic theory that illustrates the dependency of K 0 on particle shape, a rigorous micromechanical analysis is provided to take into account the effect of interparticle friction, particle shape and particle arrangement. The …
