Quantifying particle breakage through a shape factor of the particle size distribution
Quantifying the process of particle breakage is essential whenever a macroscopic investigation into the phenomenon is addressed. Some authors relate an indicator of the evolution of particle breakage, usually the surface created, to a measure of the mechanical loading. Others refer to the evolution of the particle size distribution (PSD) to better understand the problem. In this study, a shape factor of the PSD curve is used as a breakage parameter. The slope of the linear trendline of the PSD in a log-log plot was found to be reasonably representative of the shape of the PSD, for engineering granular materials. It was shown that the new breakage parameter is adapted to both well graded and uniformly graded materials, but cannot be used to describe gap-graded soils. This parameter is first studied from a micromechanical point of view, before being compared to three widely used breakage parameters: Hardin, Marsal and Einav’s breakage parameters. The transition between these three parameters and the proposed parameter is provided. The main objective of this study is to allow the operation and utilisation of experimental results, which are reported in the literature through one of the available breakage parameters, or through PSD plots.
