A network model of geometrically constrained deformations of granular materials
We study quasi-static deformation of dense granular packings. In the reference configuration, a granular material is under confining stress (prestress). Then the packing is deformed by imposing external boundary conditions, which model engineering experiments such as shear and compression. The deformation is assumed to preserve the local structure of neighbors for each particle, which is a real...
متن کاملExploring the micro - mechanics of triaxial instability in granular materials
14 The instability of granular materials due to water infiltration under fully drained conditions has been 15 previously considered in experimental studies. While laboratory experiments can provide macro-scale 16 insight into drained instability, the micro-mechanics under such conditions are yet to be explored. 17 This study has employed the Discrete Element Method (DEM) to simulate constant sh...
متن کاملGreen’s Function Measurements of Force Transmission in 2D Granular Materials
We describe experiments that probe the response to a point force of 2D granular systems under a variety of conditions. Using photoelastic particles to determine forces at the grain scale, we obtain ensembles of responses for the following particle types, packing geometries and conditions: monodisperse ordered hexagonal packings of disks, bidisperse packings of disks with different amount of dis...
متن کاملMeasurements of deformations and flows inside optically non- transparent materials
When a material is mechanically loaded or experience environmental changes such as for example thermal or pressure variations it is affected, in some way, due to these new conditions. In order to measure engineering properties related to these structural changes, such as for example deformation and strain, we need to gain information about them that are precise and reliable. There exist many di...
متن کاملDiffusive transport of light in two-dimensional granular materials.
We study photon diffusion in a two-dimensional random packing of monodisperse disks as a simple model of granular material. We apply ray optics approximation to set up a persistent random walk for the photons. We employ Fresnel's intensity reflectance with its rich dependence on the incidence angle and polarization state of the light. We present an analytic expression for the transport-mean-fre...
