Project Title Numerical and experimental investigations into particle size distribution and variability effects on soil behaviour using discrete element modelling and grading entropy concepts
Project Description Soil is a particulate material. Therefore, any behaviours that a soil exhibits must be implicitly linked to its particle size distribution (PSD). Commonly, PSD is implemented into models/methods via gradation descriptors such as the coefficient of unifo
