THE INFLUENCE OF THE REPOSE ANGLE AND POROSITY OF GRANULAR PLANT MATERIALS ON THE ANGLE OF INTERNAL FRICTION AND COHESION

Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2017, Vol 275, Issue 5

Abstract

Internal friction in granular plant materials is a very complex phenomenon. This is due to a vast number of factors that determine the behaviour of these materials. This article looks at exploring the impact of porosity, the repose angle, and moisture on the value of the internal friction angle and cohesion. Statistical analysis showed that the influence of the examined factors on the parameters of friction is statistically significant. Nonlinear estimation was performed, which allowed developing functions describing the mentioned relationship, for which the goodness-of-fit (depending on the material type) ranged from 0.813 to 0.915 for the internal friction angle and from 0.748 to 0.963 in the case of cohesion. It has been found that internal friction and cohesion need further research that will take into account additional factors defining the examined material in a more accurate manner.
