Effect of Initial Granular Structure on the Evolution of Contact Force Chains

The effect of initial granular structural conditions on load transmission patterns was experimentally investigated. Two types of granular structures were prepared by laminating cylindrical model particles of different diameters, to which photoelastic sheets were attached. Two-dimensional, reflective...
