The Study on the Ratio of Similar Material in Landslide Model Test

Abstract:

The choice of similar materials and the design of mix proportions is a key step in landslide model test. On the basis of experiment, we conduct a research for the similar materials which may sufficing volume weight, cohesive force, angle of internal friction, deformation modulus, and the infiltration coefficient on the same time. Then we put forward two kinds of schemes: one is the mixed material of high-strength glass micro beads and talcum powder; the other is the mixed material of lead beads, river sands, rubber powder and talcum powder. By analyzing the result of mix proportions test, We concluded the regularity that similar index varies along with different content of the similar material ingredients and found the notable influence factors , which provides important reference for the components of similar materials in the landslide model test.
