Table 2 Particle size range and particle number of sand.
From: DEM modeling direct shearing behavior of sand considering anti-rotation of particle
Category | Particle size range/mm | Dmax/Dmin | Coefficient of uniformity | Particle number |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Sample 1 (fine sand) | 0.175 ~ 0.35 | 2 | Cu = 1.52 d50 = 0.25 | 15,561 |
Sample 2 (coarse sand) | 0.35 ~ 0.7 | 2 | Cu = 1.52 d50 = 0.5 | 3865 |
Sample 3 | 0.067 ~ 0.5 | 7.5 | Cu = 4.18 d50 = 0.25 | 22,789 |
