Velocity distribution in a viscous granular gas.
We investigate the velocity relaxation of a viscous one-dimensional granular gas in which neither energy nor momentum is conserved in a collision. Of interest is the distribution of velocities in the gas as it cools, and the time dependence of the relaxation behavior. A Boltzmann equation of instantaneous binary collisions leads to a two-peaked distribution, as do numerical simulations of grain...
متن کاملNon-Gaussian Velocity Distribution Function in a Vibrating Granular Bed
The simulation of granular particles in a quasi-two-dimensional container under vertical vibration as an experimental accessible model for granular gases is performed. The velocity distribution function obeys an exponential-like function during the vibration and deviates from the exponential function in free-cooling states. It is confirmed that this exponentiallike distribution function is prod...
متن کاملRandom inelasticity and velocity fluctuations in a driven granular gas.
We analyze the deviations from Maxwell-Boltzmann statistics found in recent experiments studying velocity distributions in two-dimensional granular gases driven into a non-equilibrium stationary state by a strong vertical vibration. We show that in its simplest version, the "stochastic thermostat" model of heated inelastic hard spheres, contrary to what has been hitherto stated, is incompatible...
متن کاملQuasi-Gaussian velocity distribution of a vibrated granular bilayer system.
We investigate using a discrete element method the kinetic properties of a system composed of a bilayer of granular spheres submitted to a vertical vibration. For moderate dimensionless acceleration, no mixing between layers is observed and the horizontal velocity distributions of the top-layer particles with are quasi-Gaussian. The robustness of this phenomenon is examined for a variety of phy...
متن کاملSteady-state velocity distributions of an oscillated granular gas.
We use a three-dimensional molecular dynamics simulation to study the single particle distribution function of a dilute granular gas driven by a vertically oscillating plate at high accelerations (15g-90g). We find that the density and the temperature fields are essentially time-invariant above a height of about 40 particle diameters, where typically 20% of the grains are contained. These grain...
