Micro-mechanical investigation of the effect of fine content on mechanical behavior of gap graded granular materials using DEM

In this paper, we present a micro-mechanical study of the effect of fine content on the behavior of gap graded granular samples by using numerical simulations performed with the Discrete Element Method. Different samples with fine content varied from 0% to 30% are simulated. The role of fine content...
