Analysis of a Compression Test of a Model of a Granular Medium
Keyword(s):
Abstract A granular medium is idealized here by a model composed of contiguous like spheres arranged in a face-centered cubic lattice. Total stress-strain relations for this model are derived by integrating incremental relations, given previously by Duffy and Mindlin, for a loading program which consists of a uniaxial compression applied concurrently with a related isotropic pressure. Further, the failure stress in uniaxial compression is determined as a function of initial pressure. Results of experimental work are reported which agree with predictions of the theory.
