A study on particle breakage behavior during pile penetration process using acoustic emission source location

Particle breakage is a common occurrence in granular systems when the external stress exceeds the individual particle strength. A large number of experimental evidences suggested that particle breakage may significantly influence the soil behavior. In the case of pile foundations, the subsoil below...
