Influence of normal stress
Potyondy (1961); Acar (1982):
Both δ and Φ decreases with normal stress
but the ratio (δ/) remains constant
Heerema (1979), Uesugi and Kishida (1986),
O’Rourke et al. (1990)
d is independent of normal stress
For soft materials:
d increases with normal stress due to
indentation of sand into the material
(Panchanathan and Ramaswamy, 1964;
Valsangkar and Holm (1997)
Influence of Rate of deformation
 Heerema (1979)
– Rate of deformation from 0.7 to 600 mm/s
– No influence
 Lemos (1986)
– Rate of deformation 0.0038 to 133 mm/min
– No influence
Influence of Size of apparatus
 Brumund and Leonards (1973)
– Rods with interface area of 225 cm2 and 400 cm2
– No appreciable difference
 Uesugi and kishida (1986)
– Simple shear apparatus, 40 cm2 and 400 cm2
– No influence
 O’Rourke et al (1990)
– Direct shear apparatus of size equal to 6cm x 6 cm, 10
cm x10 cm, 28 cm x28 cm and 30.5x30.5 cm
– No significant influence
Rowe (1962), Uesugi and Kishida
(1986), Jardine and Lahane (1994):
d decreases with increase in grain size

Influence of grain size and shape

(Uesugi and Kishida 1986; O’Rourke et al. 1990; Paikowski et al. 1995)
Influence of type of apparatus
 Kishida and Uesugi (1987)
– Simple shear versus direct shear
– No difference
 Thandavamurthy (1990)
– Direct shear versus model pile tests
– Direct shear gives 20% higher
 Abderrahim and Tisot (1993)
– Direct shear- Ring torsion-Pressuremeter probe
– Direct shear > Pressuremeter probe >Ring shear

Analysis of past studies
From the review the following three conclusions
can be drawn:
(1) d increases with surface roughness and
reaches a maximum limiting value
(2) For very rough surfaces, d tends to a limiting
maximum value which could be either the peak
angle of internal friction p or the critical state
friction angle cv.
(3) d can either increase or remain constant with
the increase in sand density.

SUMMARY
 Interfacial friction depends on mode of shear
for sands and the maximum value of friction
angle is controlled by the type of apparatus
used to evaluate the friction angle
 For clays, mode of shear has no influence
Research Issues
 Modeling of interface behaviour : shear
stress-movement curves
 Roughness
 Hardness of solid material
 Rigidity of materials
 Mode of shear
 Particle size and shape
