7. Papers A numerical and theoretical investigation of compaction
band propagation in cemented highly porous granular materials
Submitted to: International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in
Geomechanics
Effects of damping
Effect of the bond model
(mechanical degradation law)
Effect of the size of macro-voids

8. Feature work
Numerical modeling of flow-like landslides (and debris flow) in granular masses
continuum mechanics
large displacements
-PFEM (Cremonesi et al., 2011)
-SPH (Pastor et al., 2008, 2009).
- dry granular mass (bi-phase)
modeling of a granular, heterogeneous and multiphase material
- removal of the hypothesis of incompressibility and the introduction of the coupling between
deviatoric and volumetric strains
Evolution process “from slide to flow”:
transition phase
between the solid (inception of instability) and the fluidized states (runout)
rheological model capable of deal with the phase transition of granular materials from a solid-like to a fluid-like state and vice versa
