Numerical stress analysis of granular material
The knowledge about granular materials is rather limited compared to the respective information on the solids, while a unified theory encompassing all granular material phenomena has not been created yet [1]. Despite the fact that granular material is the discontinuous media its behavior is commonly described by the continuum approach. Consequently, the definition of stresses in granular materi...
متن کاملFabric and Deformation in Granular Materials
The paper presents results of numerical experiments on a large assembly of smooth circular disks. The assembly was subjected to quasi-static biaxial loading at small to moderate strains by using the Discrete Element Method. Unlike the usual particle-based and coordination number approaches, the fabric was locally measured in relation to the shapes and orientations of voids. Deformation was meas...
متن کاملStress chain solutions in two-dimensional isostatic granular systems: fabric-dependent paths, leakage, and branching.
The stress field equations for two-dimensional disordered isostatic granular materials are reformulated, giving new results beyond the commonly accepted force chains. Localized loads give rise to exactly determinable cones of influence, bounded by stress chains. Disorder couples same-source chains, attenuates stresses along chains, causes stress leakage from chains into the cone, and gives rise...
متن کاملShear Deformation in Granular Material
An investigation into the properties of granular materials is undertaken via numerical simulation. These simulations highlight that frictional contact, a defining characteristic of dry granular materials, and interfacial debonding, an expected deformation mode in plastic bonded explosives, must be properly modeled. Frictional contact and debonding algorithms have been implemented into FLIP, a p...
متن کاملCrystallisation 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...
