Elastic medium confined in a column versus the Janssen experiment.
We compute the stresses in an elastic medium confined in a vertical column, when the material is at the Coulomb threshold everywhere at the walls. Simulations are performed in 2 dimensions using a spring lattice, and in 3 dimensions, using the Finite Element Method. The results are compared to the Janssen model and to experimental results for a granular material. The necessity to consider elast...
متن کاملLocal stresses in the Janssen granular column.
We study experimentally the distribution of local stresses in a granular material confined inside a vertical cylinder. We use an image correlation technique to measure the displacement field of the container induced by the forces exerted by the grains on the inner wall. We describe an optimization procedure based on the linear theory of elastic shells to deduce the distribution of these forces ...
متن کاملOvershoot effect in the Janssen granular column: a crucial test for granular mechanics.
We present experimental results on the mechanical behavior of static granular assemblies confined in a vertical column. Our measurements confirm the universal Janssen scaling for the stress saturation curve. We show consequently, in the context of isotropic elasticity, a relation between the Poisson ratio and the granular packing fraction. Moreover, using a systematic study of the overshoot eff...
متن کاملDigital instability of a confined elastic meniscus.
Thin soft elastic layers serving as joints between relatively rigid bodies may function as sealants, thermal, electrical, or mechanical insulators, bearings, or adhesives. When such a joint is stressed, even though perfect adhesion is maintained, the exposed free meniscus in the thin elastic layer becomes unstable, leading to the formation of spatially periodic digits of air that invade the ela...
متن کاملElastic string in a random medium.
We consider a one-dimensional elastic string as a set of massless beads interacting through springs characterized by anisotropic elastic constants. The string, driven by an external force, moves in a medium with quenched disorder. We find that longitudinal fluctuations lead to nonlinear behavior in the equation of motion that is kinematically generated by the motion of the string. The strength ...
