The interaction of the cutting tools with different geological settings determines a different wear and consequently different economical costs for the excavation. We apply here a strategy for soil modelling which is based on dis- cretization of the continuum with rigid disks and suitable contact models. We concentrate at contact level the real mechanical behaviour of the soil. In order to carry out this strategy a ”micro” and a ”macro” level are established. This paper focuses on the micromechanical model.

Abstract
The interaction of the cutting tools with different geological settings determines a different wear and consequently different economical costs for the excavation. We apply here a strategy for soil modelling which is based on dis- cretization of the continuum with rigid disks and suitable contact models. We concentrate at contact level the real mechanical behaviour of the soil. In order to carry out this strategy a ”micro” and a ”macro” level are established. This paper focuses on the micromechanical model.File in questo prodotto:
