Nonlinear elastic stress response in granular packings.
We study the nonlinear elastic response of a two-dimensional material to a localized boundary force, with the particular goal of understanding the differences observed between isotropic granular materials and those with hexagonal anisotropy. Corrections to the classical Boussinesq result for the stresses in an infinite half space of a linear, isotropic material are developed in a power series i...
متن کاملStructure of plastically compacting granular packings.
In this paper we present results of structural studies of compacting experimental systems of ductile grains in two and three dimensions. The high precision of our two-dimensional experiments enables a detailed study of the evolution of coordination numbers and local crystalline arrangements as a function of the packing fraction. The structure in both dimensions deviates considerably from that o...
متن کاملScale separation in granular packings: stress plateaus and fluctuations.
It is demonstrated, by numerical simulations of a 2D assembly of polydisperse disks, that there exists a range (plateau) of coarse-graining scales for which the stress tensor field in a granular solid is nearly resolution independent, thereby enabling an "objective" definition of this field. Expectedly, it is not the mere size of the system but the (related) magnitudes of the gradients that det...
متن کاملParticle shape effects on the stress response of granular packings.
We present measurements of the stress response of packings formed from a wide range of particle shapes. Besides spheres these include convex shapes such as the Platonic solids, truncated tetrahedra, and triangular bipyramids, as well as more complex, non-convex geometries such as hexapods with various arm lengths, dolos, and tetrahedral frames. All particles were 3D-printed in hard resin. Well-...
متن کاملConfined packings of frictionless spheres and polyhedra
By means of numerical simulations, we study the influence of confinement on three-dimensional random close packed (RCP) granular materials subject to gravity. The effects of grain shape (spherical or polyhedral) and polydispersity on this dependence are investigated. In agreement with a simple geometrical model, the solid fraction is found to decrease linearly for increasing confinement no matt...
