An Estimation Approach for the Effective Elastic Modulus of Lightweight Bulk Filling Material with Compressible Inclusions and Imperfect Interfaces

An Estimation Approach for the Effective Elastic Modulus of Lightweight Bulk Filling Material with Compressible Inclusions and Imperfect Interfaces

In this study, an approach is developed to estimate the density and effective elastic modulus of a lightweight bulk filling material made up of expanded polystyrene (EPS) and cement-reinforced clay (matrix). First, a representative volume element (RVE) is composed of cell A (an EPS and matrix) and c...
