Discrete Element Method Analysis of Ejection and Penetration of Projectile Impacting Granular Media

Simulation of High-velocity Penetration for Rigid Projectile into Plain Concrete Target using Discrete Element Method

the study of bright and surface discrete cavity solitons dynamics in saturable nonlinear media

امروزه سالیتون ها بعنوان امواج جایگزیده ای که تحت شرایط خاص بدون تغییر شکل در محیط منتشر می-شوند، زمینه مطالعات گسترده ای در حوزه اپتیک غیرخطی هستند. در این راستا توجه به پدیده پراش گسسته، که بعنوان عامل پهن شدگی باریکه نوری در آرایه ای از موجبرهای جفت شده، ظاهر می گردد، ضروری است، زیرا سالیتون های گسسته از خنثی شدن پراش گسسته در این سیستم ها بوسیله عوامل غیرخطی بوجود می آیند. گسستگی سیستم عامل...

Numerical Simulation of Dry Granular Flow Impacting a Rigid Wall Using the Discrete Element Method

This paper presents a clump model based on Discrete Element Method. The clump model was more close to the real particle than a spherical particle. Numerical simulations of several tests of dry granular flow impacting a rigid wall flowing in an inclined chute have been achieved. Five clump models with different sphericity have been used in the simulations. By comparing the simulation results wit...

A Study of the Wave Propagation Velocity in Granular Soils Using Discrete Element Method (DEM)

In the present paper, discrete element method (DEM) is used to study wave propagation phenomenon in granular soils. The effect of factors such as coefficient of friction, frequency, normal stiffness and soil gradation on the wave velocity is studied. Using the wall motion based on the sinusoidal function is the method of loading used in this simulation, through which the pressure wave is transf...

Penetration of a projectile by impact into a granular medium

When a solid sphere drops in a granular medium, an impact crater is created. The penetration of the projectile in the granular bed as a function of the impact energy is evaluated theoretically using a simple model including a friction law between the projectile and the grains, a viscous dissipation in the bed and a force from the collisions between the projectile and the granular material. This...
