A coupled CFD‐DEM investigation of suffusion of gap graded soil: Coupling effect of confining pressure and fines content

Suffusion involves fine particles migration within the matrix of coarse fraction under seepage flow, which usually occurs in the gap‐graded material of dams and levees. Key factors controlling the soil erodibility include confining pressure (p′) and fines content (Fc), of which the coupling effect o...
