Labuz, Auteur Année de publication : 2013 Article en page(s) : pp.177–187. Note générale : Applied mechanics Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Mixed-mode  fracture  Damage  zone  Electronic  speckle  pattern  interferometry  (ESPI)  Fracture  initiation  Fringe  pattern  Laser  speckle Résumé : An electronic speckle pattern interferometry (ESPI) system, which delivers high-resolution displacement data from fringes that are formed by the subtraction of laser speckle patterns, was constructed to study fracture initiation in a quasi-brittle material. Mode I opening and Mixed-Mode I and II fracture experiments were performed with a homogeneous, fine-grained (0.1–0.8 mm grain size) sandstone using the three-point bending test. Specimens were notched at various lengths and positions of the beam edge to produce the desired loading condition, with KII/KI=0−13%. The experimental results indicate that the length of the localized damage zone at peak load for Mode I fracture is 6–7 mm, which is about 10 times the (largest) grain size. From the mixed-mode loading tests, the zone length at peak load increased to 10–12 mm, and the length was more or less constant for KII/KI=5−13%. ESPI also provided detailed information on the horizontal displacement profiles along the damage zone. For center notch specimens at peak load, the horizontal (opening) displacement at the notch tip was 40 μm, which can be interpreted as the critical opening displacement if the damage zone is fully formed at peak. For mixed-mode specimens, the critical horizontal displacement at peak load is 60–80 μm, but the vertical displacement is needed to resolve the critical opening and sliding components.

Soil-structure interaction of an earth pressure cell / Gregory S. Wachman in Journal of geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering, Vol. 137 N° 9 (Septembre 2011) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Journal of geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering > Vol. 137 N° 9 (Septembre 2011) . - pp. 843-845 Titre : Soil-structure interaction of an earth pressure cell Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Gregory S. Wachman, Auteur ; Joseph F. Labuz, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : pp. 843-845 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Calibration  Contact  pressure  Earth  pressure  Soil  stress  Soil-structure  interaction Index. décimale : 624.1 Infrastructures.Ouvrages en terre. Fondations. Tunnels Résumé : The output from an earth pressure cell (EPC) is usually related to the normal stress in soil through fluid calibration, where a known pressure is applied to the EPC and the output is recorded. However, distribution of normal stress within a soil is not uniform, and the EPC is not an ideal membrane—bending stiffness affects the response. These factors complicate the performance of the EPC. A calibration procedure for an EPC is reviewed, and it is shown that these controversial sensors can provide an accurate measure of average normal stress if calibrated in soil at a given density. In addition, a soil-structure interaction model is proposed to explain why soil calibration is necessary.
