Fabric evolution within shear bands of granular materials and its relation to critical state theory (2011, background): “Such heterogeneity in ‘snapshots’ of shear bands was previously observed by Oda and Kamzma [18], Oda et al. [23], and Rechenmacher [22] with different measurement techniques.”
Multiscale modeling and characterization of granular matter: From grain kinematics to continuum mechanics (2011, background): “Even basic features, such as deformation bands, governing the failure of geosystems, pose significant challenges for the constitutive description of the material inside the band (Desrues et al., 1996; Oda et al., 2004; Rechenmacher, 2006; Santamarina, 2001).”
Buckling force chains in dense granular assemblies: physical and numerical experiments (2009, background): “It is now well established that the load-carrying capacity of this class of materials is governed by different but interconnected instability modes, developed at length scales below the macroscopic level (see, for example, Rechenmacher 2006, Oda et al. 2004, Dodds et al. 2007).”
