What Can Grading Entropy Tell Us About Soil Fabric? (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Leak, J., Barreto, D., & Dimitriadi, V. (2022, December). What Can Grading Entropy Tell Us About Soil Fabric?. Paper presented at 19th Annual Geomechanics Form Micro to Macro Conference, London

These slides were presented at the 19th annual geomechanics form micro to macro conference at Imperial College London in 2022. They detail an investigation into characterising soil fabric effects using the normalised entropy coordinates proposed by L... Read More about What Can Grading Entropy Tell Us About Soil Fabric?.

Quantifying Particle Breakage and Its Evolution Using Breakage Indices and Grading Entropy Coordinates (2022)
Journal Article
Leak, J., Barreto, D., Dimitriadi, V., & Imre, E. (2022). Quantifying Particle Breakage and Its Evolution Using Breakage Indices and Grading Entropy Coordinates. Geotechnics, 2(4), 1109-1126. https://doi.org/10.3390/geotechnics2040052

Particle breakage in soils is a well-recognised behaviour. Conventional methods for quantifying the breakage process rely on calculating the area between the particle size distribution (PSD) curves produced before and after crushing. A key aspect of...

Fines content effects on liquefaction susceptibility, void ratio & soil fabric: a grading entropy approach (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Leak, J. (2022, April). Fines content effects on liquefaction susceptibility, void ratio & soil fabric: a grading entropy approach. Paper presented at 18th European Mechanics of Materials Conference: Mechanics of porous and granular materials, Oxford

These slides were presented at the 18th European Mechanics of Materials Conference: Mechanics of porous and granular materials (2022). They discuss research into the effect of increasing fines content in soils with regard to their internal stability....
