Abstract
This paper studies the behavior of a number of blasting (angular) and alluvium (rounded)
modeled rockll materials by conducting large-scale triaxial testing, as well as numerical modeling. The
numerical modeling is based on an elasto-plastic theory and enables one to predict the stress-strainvolumetric
behavior of materials during shearing. The material parameters were determined from the
experimental and numerical modeling. Variations of the material parameters, with respect to the conning
pressure, Los Angeles abrasion, Point Load index, and particle breakage were investigated. Also, for design
applications, curves fitted to the data are presented.
