Abstract

The mechanical characteristics of granular matter tested under biaxial loading are studied by numerical simulation. The stress–strain process, volume strain, coordination number, and shear zone are analyzed. The results indicate that the shear zone develops along with the coordination number and volume strain. With an increase in strain, the shear zone is centralized gradually. Moreover, the force transfer in the granular matter is also discussed.
