Critical State Model of Sand-Tire Derived Aggregate Mixtures Based on Triaxial Tests
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study is part of an environmental experimental program on the use of scrap automobile tires for geotechnical applications. Different types of laboratory tests were conducted to determine the elastic, plastic, and creep parameters of tire derived aggregate (TDA)-sand granulated mixtures. However, this paper emphasizes the plasticity parameters via the development of a critical state model based on the results of triaxial tests. This was attained by considering loose sand specimens, at a predetermined TDA volumetric content, subject to three different confining pressures under a constant axial displacement rate. The calculated deviatoric stress versus axial strain curves, obtained via the modified Cam Clay model, captured the non-linear elastoplastic response obtained in the tests. Results indicated that the level of the shear strength is highly dependent on critical state friction angle which in turn depends on the TDA content. For the loose TDA-sand mixtures used in the present study, the effect of the TDA content demonstrates a reinforcement of the sand matrix. However this reinforcement diminishes as the TDA content increases.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
