Abstract:Using a modified direct shear apparatus, an extensive experimental investigation is conducted into the influence of the inherent anisotropy of sand on the mobilization of the peak and critical state friction angles as well as the maximum dilation angle of the interfaces between an inherently anisotropic crushed sand and two woven geotextiles, one nonwoven geotextile, and one geomembrane. Experimental findings confirm that both peak and maximum dilation angles of sand-geosynthetic interfaces are affected from soil inherent anisotropy depending on the bedding plane inclination with respect to the shear plane. However, a unique critical state (residual) friction angle is attained for each interface type irrespective of the bedding plane inclination angle. Compiling results of a total of 141 tests, it is shown that a unique rule describes stress-dilation relationship of four different dense crushed sand-geosynthetic interfaces. The experimental data indicate that the ?p vs. θ and ψmax vs. θ curves are symmetrical with respect to θ?=?90° for the sand-woven geotextile and sand-geomembrane interfaces. Finally, it is shown that a constitutive equation by Pietruszczak and Mroz (2001) can predict the variation of ?p with θ for the sand-woven geotextile and sand-geomembrane interfaces.
