Presentation
The LEM3 laboratory has developed a device to test the behavior of granular materials and powders. It allows studying grain deformation and a granular assembly submitted to an external compression.
The device is made of a main box, which receives the tested material, on which are fixed longitudinal and lateral walls, partly mobile to apply pressure along those two axes. It also comprises a flexible membrane, on which pressure can be applied to increase the applied force intensity.
