Continuum description of avalanches in granular media.
We develop a continuum description of partially fluidized granular flows. Our theory is based on the hydrodynamic equation for the flow coupled with the order parameter equation, which describes the transition between flowing and static components of the granular system. This theory captures important phenomenology recently observed in experiments with granular flows on rough inclined planes [A...
متن کاملModeling of impact cratering in granular media
We simulate penetration of large projectiles into dry granular media using two-dimensional soft particle molecular dynamics. We systematically vary the physical parameters of the projectile (density, size, impact energy). Our results confirm the recently observed scaling of the crater depth with impact energy as observed by Uehara et al. (2003) and the effect of constant deceleration of the bal...
متن کاملImage-Based Modeling of Granular Porous Media
We propose a new method of modeling granular media that utilizes a single twoor three-dimensional image and is formulated based on a Markov process. The process is mapped onto one that minimizes the difference between the image and a stochastic realization of the granular medium, and utilizes a novel approach to remove possible unphysical discontinuities in the realization. Quantitative compari...
متن کاملContinuum modeling of secondary rheology in dense granular materials.
Recent dense granular flow experiments have shown that shear deformation in one region of a granular medium fluidizes its entirety, including regions far from the sheared zone, effectively erasing the yield condition everywhere. This enables slow creep deformation to occur when an external force is applied to a probe in the nominally static regions of the material. The apparent change in rheolo...
متن کاملModeling relaxation and jamming in granular media.
We introduce a stochastic microscopic model to investigate the jamming and reorganization of grains induced by an object moving through a granular medium. The model reproduces the experimentally observed periodic sawtooth fluctuations in the jamming force and predicts the period and the power spectrum in terms of the controllable physical parameters. It also predicts that the avalanche sizes, d...
