Abstract: |
One of the most common methods to measure soil
strength in-situ is by cone penetrometer. This paper is about the development
of a 3 dimensional (3D) discrete element model (DEM) for simulation of the
soil-cone penetrometer interaction. To simulate cohesive soil the Hertz-Mindlin
with bonding contact model was used in EDEM 2.7 discrete element software.
The parameters were calibrated to real test result and after that the effect
of the model dimension (namely the diameter of the cylinder) on soil
penetration resistance was analysed. The results of the calculations were
very similar to the real soil penetration resistances therefore the model can
be used to simulate the cone penetrometer in-situ test. Another result of the
paper that a suggestion for proper model size is given in soil-cone
penetrometer discrete element simulations. |
