Molecular dynamics simulations of vibrated granular gases.
We present molecular dynamics simulations of monodisperse or bidisperse inelastic granular gases driven by vibrating walls, in two dimensions (without gravity). Because of the energy injection at the boundaries, a situation often met experimentally, density and temperature fields display heterogeneous profiles in the direction perpendicular to the walls. A general equation of state for an arbit...
متن کاملDynamics of vibrated granular monolayers
– We study statistical properties of vibrated granular monolayers using molecular dynamics simulations. We show that at high excitation strengths, the system is in a gas state, particle motion is isotropic, and the velocity distributions are Gaussian. As the vibration strength is lowered, the system’s dimensionality is effectively reduced from three to two. Below a critical excitation strength,...
متن کاملEnergy fluctuations in vibrated and driven granular gases
We investigate the behavior of energy fluctuations in several models of granular gases maintained in a non-equilibrium steady state. In the case of a gas heated from a boundary, the inhomogeneities of the system play a predominant role. Interpreting the total kinetic energy as a sum of independent but not identically distributed random variables, it is possible to compute the probability densit...
متن کاملAnisotropy-driven dynamics in vibrated granular rods.
The dynamics of a set of rods bouncing on a vertically vibrated plate is investigated using experiments, simulations, and theoretical analysis. The experiments and simulations are performed within an annulus to impose periodic boundary conditions. Rods tilted with respect to the vertical are observed to spontaneously develop a horizontal velocity depending on the acceleration of the plate. For ...
متن کاملReverse buoyancy in a vibrated granular bed: Computer simulations.
We have performed molecular dynamics simulations of an intruder in a vibrated granular bed including interstitial fluid effects to account for the phenomenon of reverse buoyancy. We show that our model is able to reproduce the overall behaviour observed by previous experimental works and is the first finite-elements simulation to show the sinking of intruders lighter than the granular bed. To f...
