Abstract
Abstract This paper describes the use of X-ray tomography imaging of natural gravel specimens to create repeatable assemblages of bonded gravel-size resin specimens using a 3D printer. The paper describes how the resulting resin-based surrogate specimens have particle geometry and interparticle bonds that are a function of the original scanning image resolution and 3D printer resolution. Results of conventional triaxial compression testing of original source gravel specimens and constructed bonded specimens are compared. While there are quantitative differences in behavior between unbonded source and bonded duplicate specimens, the surrogate specimens are shown to have macroscale mechanical behavior that may be considered typical of some granular soils. The ability to generate identical surrogate bonded granular specimens with the same particle arrangement holds promise to remove the influence on geotechnical laboratory testing outcomes due to the unavoidable structural variation in specimens of natural granular assemblages.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
