Despite their wide application as construction materials in various earthworks built by state and local transportation agencies, the role of physical and mechanical factors in the strength and deformation behavior of crushed, manufactured open-graded aggregates (OGAs) is not well studied. In this investigation, the strain rate dependency of strength–deformation behaviors of two commonly employed crushed aggregates with small (12.7 mm) and large (38.1 mm) sizes is investigated. A 150-mm diameter triaxial testing device was used to conduct a drained compression test at five strain rates, ranging from 0.000083%/s to 0.0083%/s. To evaluate the significance of confining stress and density on the effect of strain rates, the shear tests were conducted at 34 kPa and 207 kPa effective confining stress levels, with the samples compacted at loose (30%) and dense (95%) relative densities. The peak friction angle, maximum dilation angle, secant modulus, and axial strain at which the aggregates started to dilate were determined to evaluate the strain rate effect on the shear behavior of OGAs. The results demonstrate that within the imposed quasistatic strain rate ranges, only the dilation angle showed an increasing trend with the increase in strain rate, whereas other extracted strength parameters were less sensitive to strain rate for both OGAs tested. Hence, the selection of strain rates according to ASTM specifications is appropriate for conducting strength parameter tests, used by practitioners for the design of geotechnical structures, on OGAs under quasistatic conditions.

Simulation Results

In this paper, the effect of strain rate has been considered in the simulation of forming process with a simple form combined into the material law. Quite a few researchers have proposed various hardening laws and strain rate functions to describe the material tensile curve. In this study, the strain rate model Cowper-Symonds is used with anisotropic elasto-plastic material law in the simulation process. The strain path evolution of certain elements, when the strain rate is considered and not, is compared. Two sheet materials, Cold-reduced Carbon Steel (SPCC) JIS G3141 and Aluminum alloy 6112 are used in this study. Two yield criteria, Hill 48 and Hill 90, are applied respectively to improve the accuracy of simulation result. They show different performance when strain rate effect is considered. Strain path of the elements in the fracture risk area of SPCC (JIS G3141) varies much when the strain rate material law is used. There is only little difference of the strain distribution of Al 6112 when the strain rate effect is included and excluded in the material law. The simulation results of material SPCC under two conditions indicate that the strain rate should be considered if the material is the rate-sensitive material, which provides more accurate simulation results.
