Evolution of soil fabric and its interpretation using different methods.

Barreto, Daniel

Abstract

Different methods to study the evolution of fabric anisotropy are presented. DEM simulations on assemblies of spheres subjected to different stress paths using a three-dimensional periodic cell are used for the analysis of these methods. The links between soil fabric and macro-scale behaviour are also discussed.
