Experimental and Mesoscale Simulation Study on the Seepage–Stress Coupling Behavior of Cemented Sand and Gravel Materials
Cemented sand and gravel (CSG), widely used in dams and cofferdams, is susceptible to fracture under coupled seepage and mechanical loading. This study combines wedge-splitting experiments and mesoscale numerical simulations to investigate the hydro-mechanical fracture behavior of CSG under crack-face water pressures o...
