Stress Fluctuations for Continuously Sheared Granular Materials.
Experiments on continuously sheared granular materials (glass spheres) with diameters 1.0 # d # 5 mm show large fluctuations in the normal stress, sstd. Experiments are carried out in an annular Couette geometry for rotation rates 0.003 , Ù u , 1 radys. Power spectra from sstd, Psvd, show rate invariance in the fluctuations: Ù uPsvd is a function only of vy Ù u, independent of Ù u. Ù uPsvd depe...
متن کاملGrain fragmentation in sheared granular flow: weakening effects, energy dissipation, and strain localization.
We describe the shear flow of a disordered granular material in the presence of grain fracture using the shear-transformation-zone theory of amorphous plasticity adapted to systems with a hard-core interparticle interaction. To this end, we develop the equations of motion for this system within a statistical-thermodynamic framework analogous to that used in the analysis of molecular glasses. Fo...
متن کاملMixing and segregation rates in sheared granular materials.
The vertical size segregation of granular materials, a process commonly associated with the Brazil-nut effect, has generally been thought to proceed faster the greater the size difference of the particles. We experimentally investigate sheared dense bidisperse granular materials as a function of the size ratio of the two species and find that the mixing rate at low confining pressure behaves as...
متن کاملTransients in sheared granular matter.
As dense granular materials are sheared, a shear band and an anisotropic force network form. The approach to steady-state behavior depends on the history of the packing and the existing force and contact network. We present experiments on shearing of dense granular matter in a 2D Couette geometry in which we probe the history and evolution of shear bands by measuring particle trajectories and s...
متن کاملStrain localization driven by structural relaxation in sheared amorphous solids.
A two dimensional amorphous material is modeled as an assembly of mesoscopic elemental pieces coupled together to form an elastically coherent structure. Plasticity is introduced as the existence of different minima in the energy landscape of the elemental constituents. Upon the application of an external strain rate, the material shears through the appearance of elemental slip events with quad...
