Fractal dimension analysis of aggregate packing process: A numerical case study on concrete simulation

Xu Yang et al.

Summary: The study analyzed and discussed the fractal dimension changes during the packing process of a packed particle system, showing that the fractal dimension fluctuated before major immobilization of large particles and became stable after inter-particle contact formation. The differences in fractal dimensions indicated the packed system had higher geometric complexity than the unpacked one, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing between models generated by random allocation and packed models for more realistic concrete simulation.

Porosity assessment of granular mixtures intended for concrete using the fractal model of particle-size distribution

Rouibi Mohammed et al.

Summary: The study primarily focuses on estimating the porosity of dry granular mixtures and determining the optimal fractal dimension and vibration duration for minimal porosity. Experimental results showed that the minimum porosity of dry granular mixtures can be achieved with an optimal fractal dimension close to 2.8 and a vibration duration of 10 seconds under specific conditions.
