International audienceThe appearance of breaches in recent hydraulic earthstructures due to internal erosion confirms that improving our physical understanding of the phenomenon is urgent. Under the effect of internal flows, earthstructures can undergo a migration of their particles, which modifies the particle size distribution and affects both hydraulic and mechanical characteristics. This paper initially presents a parametric study conducted on sand/kaolin samples. The experimental device described here consists of three modified triaxial cells used to control sample confinement, prevent any parasitic flow and survey sample large deformations. The tests reveal that internal erosion (suffusion or piping) is initiated by the transport of c...
