中文摘要：

应用离散单元法研究了颗粒土试样在传统三轴压缩、平面应变和直剪3种不同荷载条件及不同初始条件下的变形破坏特性,从微观角度分析了不同条件下颗粒土试样变形的根本物理机理.对不同初始孔隙比、不同围压、不同荷载条件下的试样变形和破坏进行了数值模拟计算分析.结果表明,离散单元法可以准确反映试样的变形情况和局部应变等特性.通过对微观颗粒行为包括颗粒旋转和颗粒平移及局部孔隙率的研究,从细微观角度解释了不同条件下试样的变形特性和局部应变的产生机理,结果显示,荷载条件是影响试样变形破坏模式的重要因素,土的微观行为特性是其宏观表现特性的根本的内在物理原因.

英文摘要：

The discrete element method is used to simulate specimens under three different loading conditions（conventional triaxial compression,plane strain,and direct shear）with different initial conditions to explore the underlying mechanics of the specimen deformation from a microscale perspective.Deformations of specimens with different initial void ratios at different confining stresses under different loading conditions are studied.Results show that the discrete element models successfully capture the specimen deformation and the strain localization.Particle behaviors including particle rotation and displacement and the mesoscale void ratio distributions are used to explain the strain localization and specimen deformation.It is found that the loading condition is one of the most important factors controlling the specimen deformation mode.Microscale behavior of the granular soil is the driving mechanics of the macroscale deformation of the granular assembly.
