Experimental Study on Dynamic Characteristics of Tailings

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, the dynamic characteristics for three different kinds of copper tailings are studied through a series of cyclic triaxial tests. It is found that under confining pressure 200 and 300 kPa, elastic modulus raises with the increasement of coarse grain content to a certain degree and then declines, and the maximum elastic modulus corresponds to good gradation. While, as for confining pressure 100 kPa, elastic modulus raises with the increasement of fine grain content. It is also found that elastic modulus raises with the increasement of confning pressure. And, damping ratio raises with the increasement of shear strain and finally to a stable value. Finally, the fitting Gd/Gdmax~ curve for three kinds of tailings shows the reasonableness of test results.
