Micromechanical experiments using a new inter-granule loading apparatus on gravel to ballast-sized materials

Abstract Micromechanical and tribological studies of geological materials with a particular focus on their contact-mechanics behavior at the grain scale are currently a major interest in the engineering and geoscience disciplines. In this study, a new robust micromechanical apparatus developed at th...
