STRESSES WAVES IN GRANULAR MATERIAL

Abstract

The results and findings of researches into stress wave propagation of granular media are presented. The purpose of this work is to clarify air- induced ground shock phenomena in soils, leading to reliable analytical methods of prediction, and to provide guidance for experimental verification and research. This final report summarizes work on one-dimensional wave propagation of bi-linear, locking, and compacting materials, and presents the first results of the extension of these researches into two-dimensional wave phenomena in such non-linear media.
