Viscoelasticity of granular materials

open access: yesMechanics of Materials, 1995
Abstract In a former work (V.T. Granik and M. Ferrari (1993), Microstructural mechanics of granular media, Mech. Mater. 15, 301–322) a micromechanical theory for elastic granular media was deduced on the basis of the identification of the constituent grains with the nodes of a Bravais lattice.

Scaling properties of granular materials [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2001
Given an assembly of viscoelastic spheres with certain material properties, we raise the question how the macroscopic properties of the assembly will change if all lengths of the system, i.e. radii, container size etc., are scaled by a constant. The result leads to a method to scale down experiments to lab-size.

Mixing Fluids and Granular Materials [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, 2009
AbstractFluid animations in computer graphics show interactions with various kinds of objects. However, fluid flowing through a granular material such as sand is still not possible within current frameworks. In this paper, we present the simulation of fine granular materials interacting with fluids.

Granular Crystals: Controlling Mechanical Energy with Nonlinearity and Discreteness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The presence of structural discreteness and periodicity can affect the propagation of phonons, sound, and other mechanical waves. A fundamental property of many of the periodic structures and materials designed for this purpose is the presence of ...

Damping mechanisms of vibration reduction system with granular materials for vibration system with high natural frequency (Proposal of “relative motion mass”, “rotating mass”, and their consideration)

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2017
We investigated the damping mechanism of a granular material damping system applied to reducing vibration in structures that have a high natural frequency and small vibration displacement. Experiments were conducted under several conditions of total mass

Calculation of multilayer sieve classifiers for separating grained materials by size [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2021
From the standpoint of stochastic Poisson processes, the separation of granular materials by size on multi-tiered sieve classifiers is studied. Taking into account the selected separation scheme, a system of stochastic differential equations is drawn up ...

On the Failure of the Granular Material

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 1967
SYNOPSIS Notwithstanding the statistical theory of mechanics of granular material proposed by the senior author, was established basing on experimental evidences, still it contained several uncertain assumptions. By the bi-axial compression tests on assemblage of equal balls, almost all of assumptions were ascertained. Observing the failure phenomena,

Granular Material Development Applied in an Experimental Section for Civil Engineering Purposes

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
In this study, a granular material (GM) derived from wastes generated in waste-to-energy plants was developed. Weathered bottom ash (WBA) and air pollution control (APC) ashes obtained from municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) were used as raw ...

Granular Material Point Method: a numerical approach based on continuum mechanics for modelling granular flows

open access: yes, 2023
This doctoral thesis investigates and models the flows of granular materials numerically. It focuses on flows with low shear rates and replicates quasi-static, moderate and disconnected states of granular flows and the transition between them.
