In this paper, we report in detail the compressive strength of wet granules under a diametrical compression test by means of the discrete element simulations. The numerical method is coupled with the capillary cohesion law which is enhanced by the cohesive forces between grains having a gap not exceeding a rupture distance.

Grain boundary strengthening is a method of strengthening materials by changing their average crystalize (grain) size, exhibiting the basic relationship between yield stress and the grain size of the materials. This methodology is based on the observation of grain boundaries that are insurmountable borders for dislocations and the number of dislocations located within a grain.

This paper investigates the influence of intergranular friction and grain size distributions on the initial void ratio of a granular sample subjected to isotropic compression loading. In the field of geomechanics, besides the loading path and evolution of microscopic properties, the initial void ratio is a crucial and key factor that governs the mechanical behavior of geomaterials.
