Abstract: Limited by the particle size requirements of testing apparatus, little true triaxial test (TTT) research on rockfill has been conducted. Using a large true triaxial apparatus (TTA) developed independently by the Changjiang ...

Abstract: This research will investigate the numerical simulation of rockfill materials using a combined scaled boundary finite–discrete element method (SBFEM/DEM) with two breakage models. Two rockfill specimens that are subjected ...
