Crystallisation in a granular material
The athermal and dissipative nature of packings of grains is still challenging our understanding of their compaction as well as their crystallisation. For instance, some beads poured in a container get jammed in random disordered con gurations, which cannot be denser than 64%, the random closed packing (RCP) limit. Remarkably it has been suggested that the RCP bound is saturated with dense patt...
متن کاملRheology of a confined granular material.
We study the rheology of a granular material slowly driven in a confined geometry. The motion is characterized by a steady sliding with a resistance force increasing with the driving velocity and the surrounding relative humidity. For lower driving velocities a transition to stick-slip motion occurs, exhibiting a blocking enhancement with decreasing velocity. We propose a model to explain this ...
متن کاملFracture of a model cohesive granular material.
We study experimentally the fracture mechanisms of a model cohesive granular medium consisting of glass beads held together by solidified polymer bridges. The elastic response of this material can be controlled by changing the cross-linking of the polymer phase, for example. Here we show that its fracture toughness can be tuned over an order of magnitude by adjusting the stiffness and size of t...
متن کاملShakedown of unbound granular material
Compacted unbound granular materials are extensively used as sub-layer in pavement design. Most pavement design guides assume that they are responsible for the degradation and deformation of the roads and railways that they support. Biaxial tests are usually employed to investigate the elasto-plastic response of these materials to cyclic loading. A particularly interesting question is whether a...
متن کاملApplication of Phase Change Material (PCM) for Cooling Load Reduction in Lightweight and Heavyweight Buildings: Case Study of a High Cooling Load Region of Iran
The application of phase change material (PCM) for energy conservation purposes in the residential buildings was investigated in the present study. Two types of building in terms of materials as the lightweight building (LWB) and heavyweight building (HWB) located in a high cooling load demanding region of Iran were considered for the study. Different types of PCM from organic and inorganic cat...
