This paper is a study of the dependence of the volume of voids in a granular material on the particle size distribution. It has previously been proposed that the volume of voids is proportional to the volume of the smallest particles. In a particle s...

Stress path tests are used to investigate the yield surface of a crushable numerical soil. Triaxial samples with isotropic and anisotropic stress histories are examined to determine the nature of the yield surface and to establish what governs yield....
