Revisiting Hardin’s parameters for the quantification of particle breakage – A statistical entropy approach (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Leak, J., Barreto, D., Dimitriadi, V., & Imre, E. (2021, July). Revisiting Hardin’s parameters for the quantification of particle breakage – A statistical entropy approach. Presented at Powders & Grains 2021 – 9th International Conference on Micromechanics on Granular Media, Buenos Aires (Virtual), Argentina

It is well recognised that particle breakage in granular materials is affected by stress level, stress path, initial density, and particle size distribution (PSD), amongst others. Furthermore, it has been shown that breakage has a significant influen... Read More about Revisiting Hardin’s parameters for the quantification of particle breakage – A statistical entropy approach.

Grading entropy coordinates and criteria for evaluation of liquefaction potential (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barreto Gonzalez, D., Leak, J., Dimitriadi, V., McDougall, J., Imre, E., & Lőrincz, J. (2019, June). Grading entropy coordinates and criteria for evaluation of liquefaction potential. Presented at 7th International Conference on Earthquake Geotechnical Engineering, Rome, Italy

Several methods are commonly used for the evaluation of liquefaction potential in soils. These include criteria based on SPT and CPT tests, shear wave velocity measurements and gradation limits, amongst others. This study applies the concept of gradi...
