- Description
This paper presents the results from direct shear testing of gravel-rubber mixtures through laboratory experiments and numerical simulations with discrete element method (DEM). Mixtures with volumetric proportions of 0%, 10%, 25%, 40% and 100% granulated rubber were tested using a conventional, mediumsized direct shear apparatus under three normal stresses: 30, 60 and 100 kPa. Experimental results show a decrease in shear strength, greater strain at peak shear stress and less dilative behavio...
