Contact models for very loose granular materials
One challenge of todays research on particle systems is the realistic simulation of granular materials consisting of many thousands of particles with peculiar contact interactions. In this study, molecular dynamics (MD, also called discrete element method, DEM) is introduced for the simulation of many-particle systems. A wide class of realistic contact models is presented, involving dissipation...
متن کاملSupplementary materials for Granular clustering of de novo protein models
The benchmark set of 295 non-homologous protein targets (Bibby et al., 2012) was used in the evaluation of the partial models produced with the GC algorithm (40 to 120 residues long, 2.2Å resolution ro better, R < 0.25, Rfree < 0.35). 500 decoys were folded by ROSETTA (Leaver-Fay et al., 2011) de novo for each target. Homologous proteins were excluded from the Rosetta fragment library, to simul...
متن کاملEmergence of Gamma distributions in granular materials and packing models.
We study the distribution of volume fluctuations in experiments and numerical simulations concerning equal-sized sphere packings prepared with different techniques. We show that the distribution of the local volumes (Voronoï cells) and also the distributions of the global volumes (whole samples) follow remarkably well a shifted and rescaled Gamma distribution that we name a k-Gamma distribution...
متن کاملRatcheting of granular materials.
We investigate the quasistatic mechanical response of soils under cyclic loading using a discrete model of randomly generated convex polygons. This response exhibits a sequence of regimes, each one characterized by a linear accumulation of plastic deformation with the number of cycles. At the grain level, a quasiperiodic ratchetlike behavior is observed at the contacts, which excludes the exist...
متن کاملDissipation in Granular Materials
For two simple setups it is discussed, how dissipative grain-grain interactions give rise to unexpected properties on large scales. In the rst example, a spherical particle rolling along a rough surface experiences an eeective viscous friction on large time scales. It is due to temporal correlations among collisions with incomplete normal restitution. The second example is a sheared granular pa...
