Degradation of geomaterials, that is, particle breakage, can be harmful to the full life-cycle
stability of practical engineering; for example, rockfill dam, energy-pile foundation, railway …

Numerous offshore transportation infrastructures built with delicate calcareous sand (CS)
experience intricate seepage conditions caused by tidal fluctuations. Traffic loads can cause …

Calcareous sand has been used as an emerging unbound granular filler to replace siliceous
sand in the construction of marine transportation infrastructure. However, the critical …

The high-temperature climate, dynamic stress loading and soil particle dimension have non-
negligible influence on the interface interaction between marine coral sand and polymer …

Seabed soil losses, eg, seabed trench and general scour, greatly affect the bearing capacity
and failure mode of caisson anchors. In this paper, a series of centrifuge model tests have …

This paper presents the results of a study on the evolution of particle shape in carbonate
sands that underwent different degrees of particle breakage. Carbonate sand specimens …

Calcareous sand is an important filling material in marine engineering. The accurate
interpretation of the calcareous sand's stress–dilatancy behavior under high-cycle loading …

Although particle corner breakage has been proved to be the primary mode of particle
breakage for coral sand, current studies of pile penetration have continued to present the …

Particle size and confining pressure are important factors that influence the shear
characteristics of coral sand. In this study, multiple consolidated-drained triaxial shear tests …

Transportation infrastructures filled with calcareous sand are subjected to a high-cyclic
loading. Existing studies indicated that a key challenge in predicting the cumulative …
