Abstract

This study investigates an application of genetic programming (GP) for modeling of coarse rotund sand–mica mixtures. An empirical model equation is developed by means of GP technique. The experimental database used for GP modeling is based on a laboratory study of the properties of saturated coarse rotund sand and mica mixtures with various mix ratios under a 100 kPa effective stresses, because of its unusual behavior. In the tests, deviatoric stress, and pore pressure generation, and strain have been measured in a 100 mm diameter conventional triaxial testing apparatus. The input variables in the developed GP models are the mica content, and strain, and the outputs are deviatoric stress, pore water pressure generation. The performance of accuracies of proposed GP based equations is observed to be quite satisfactory.
