Granular dampers: does particle shape matter?

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
By means of particle-based numerical simulations using the discrete element method, we address the question of how the performance of granular dampers is affected by the shape of the granular particles.

Dependence of shape on particle size for a crushed rock railway ballast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Laboratory testing of railway ballast poses practical difficulties because the particle size is often too large for most standard apparatus. There are therefore advantages in developing a scaled material whose behavior is representative of the full size ...
