Lees-Edwards boundary conditions for the multi-sphere discrete element method

نویسندگان

چکیده

A consistent implementation of Lees-Edwards boundary conditions is proposed for the Multi-Sphere Discrete Element Method, which can mitigate various unphysical effects at bulk and micro-structural levels. These include non-linear velocity profiles inhomogeneous particle distributions, result in significant errors with respect to pressure granular temperature. In order allow a fair assessment different implementations, novel compound sphere shape devised comparison reliable benchmark data generated from systems spherical particles. The Method utilised examine two implementations these conditions. commonly used Naive approach results aforementioned effects, are numerical artefacts causing deviations up one magnitude. Meanwhile, fulfils fundamental requirements produces excellent agreement results, as well available literature. Comparing general principles developed implementing Method.

Lees-Edwards boundary conditions for Lattice Boltzmann

Lees-Edwards boundary conditions (LEbc) for Molecular Dynamics simulations [1] are an extension of the well known periodic boundary conditions and allow the simulation of bulk systems in a simple shear flow. We show how the idea of LEbc can be implemented in lattice Boltzmann simulations and how LEbc can be used to overcome the problem of a maximum shear rate that is limited to less then 1/Ly (...

Finite Element Method for Epitaxial Growth with Thermodynamic Boundary Conditions

We develop an adaptive finite element method for island dynamics in epitaxial growth. We study a step-flow model, which consists of an adatom (adsorbed atom) diffusion equation on terraces of different height; thermodynamic boundary conditions on terrace boundaries including anisotropic line tension; and the normal velocity law for the motion of such boundaries determined by a two-sided flux, t...

Approximate Dirichlet Boundary Conditions in the Generalized Finite Element Method

We propose a method for treating the Dirichlet boundary conditions in the framework of the Generalized Finite Element Method (GFEM). We use approximate Dirichlet boundary conditions as in [12] and polynomial approximations of the boundary. Our sequence of GFEM-spaces considered, Sμ, μ = 1, 2, . . . is such that Sμ 6 ⊂ H1 0 (Ω), and hence it does not conform to one of the basic FEM conditions. L...
