Abstract
Knowledge of the shear behavior of landslide soil is very important for understanding landslide dynamics. This study investigated the shear behavior of base soil particle materials using ring shear tests with glass beads. Samples with varying particle sizes and distributions were examined to explore how particle size affects shear behavior at different shear velocities. Analysis of the samples included assessment of shear stress, displacement-shear stress fluctuations, and changes in the shear stress standard deviation. Results showed that with increasing shear displacement, shear stress fluctuations stabilize. Rather large difference particle size differences lead to more uniform particle mixing and a lower shear stress standard deviation. Conversely, when smaller particles predominate, particle mixing is less uniform, resulting in a higher shear stress standard deviation. Additionally, this study discussed the shear dilation and compaction mechanisms of samples under large displacement shear.
期刊介绍:
Powder Technology is an International Journal on the Science and Technology of Wet and Dry Particulate Systems. Powder Technology publishes papers on all aspects of the formation of particles and their characterisation and on the study of systems containing particulate solids. No limitation is imposed on the size of the particles, which may range from nanometre scale, as in pigments or aerosols, to that of mined or quarried materials. The following list of topics is not intended to be comprehensive, but rather to indicate typical subjects which fall within the scope of the journal's interests:
Formation and synthesis of particles by precipitation and other methods.
Modification of particles by agglomeration, coating, comminution and attrition.
Characterisation of the size, shape, surface area, pore structure and strength of particles and agglomerates (including the origins and effects of inter particle forces).
Packing, failure, flow and permeability of assemblies of particles.
Particle-particle interactions and suspension rheology.
Handling and processing operations such as slurry flow, fluidization, pneumatic conveying.
Interactions between particles and their environment, including delivery of particulate products to the body.
Applications of particle technology in production of pharmaceuticals, chemicals, foods, pigments, structural, and functional materials and in environmental and energy related matters.
For materials-oriented contributions we are looking for articles revealing the effect of particle/powder characteristics (size, morphology and composition, in that order) on material performance or functionality and, ideally, comparison to any industrial standard.
