The strength and dilatancy of sand

Abstract: The effects of stress path and loading direction in the triaxial test on strength and dilatancy of sand are investigated. It is shown that the unique relationship observed between peak friction angle and dilation rate at peak in conventional triaxial tests is followed regardless of stress path, confining stress at failure, relative density, and the mode of loading (compression or extension).

“…His strength criterion is still applied in contemporary soil mechanics, as better alternative has not been found yet, although some authors have tried to modify his strength criterion by adding the effect of dilation, Rowe (1962), Bolton (1986), Houlsby (1991), Schanz and Vermeer (1996), Vaid and Sasitharan (1992). Still unsolved problem in geomechanics is determination of the pre-failure behaviour of these materials, see Sawicki (2012) who provides extensive references.…”

“…Este reordenamiento interno ocurre porque una partícula se desliza encima de la otra, para a veces quedar más separadas o más unidas dependiendo de la condición inicial de la roca. [29] Al aumentarse el volumen y reordenarse las partículas se crean espacios entre cada grano, el cual se puede llenar de agua, aceite o cualquier tipo de fluido, este se filtra hacia el espacio que se ha generado [47] Cuando ocurre la dilatancia, la permeabilidad y la porosidad se ven afectadas ya que se inducen cambios en los espacios entre los granos [49], esto hace que la resistencia de la roca disminuya y la roca falle más rápido [11]. existe una configuración inicial de los granos sometidos a esfuerzos, donde hay un área critica entre cada grano, ésta va cambiando su dirección a medida que los esfuerzos cambian, esto hace que se modifique la permeabilidad [3].…”

“…In order to consider the relative suitability of the alternative deˆnitions of c presented above, an analysis has been made of triaxial compression and extension failure data presented by Vaid and Sasitharan (1992). Figure 1 shows the relationship between q and c, based on the results of 53 triaxial compression and extension tests on Erksak sand, tested at various relative densities, under various conˆning stresses and following various stress paths.…”
