Formation of shear bands in plane sheet

Formation and Development of Shear Bands inGranular

A system of equations modeling antiplane shear in a granular material is considered. The model includes the possibility of localization of strain, and the subsequent development of shear bands. This behavior is captured in our analysis of the Riemann initial value problem, in which an initial discontinuity propagates as a combination of moving waves and a stationary shear band. The analysis is ...

Formation of Shear Bands in Drying Colloidal Dispersions.

In directionally dried colloidal dispersions regular bands can appear behind the drying front, inclined at ±45° to the drying line. Although these features have been noted to share visual similarities with shear bands in metal, no physical mechanism for their formation has ever been suggested, until very recently. Here, through microscopy of silica and polystyrene dispersions, dried in Hele-Sha...

Fluid depletion in shear bands.

How does pore liquid reconfigure within shear bands in wet granular media? Conventional wisdom predicts that liquid is drawn into dilating granular media. We, however, find a depletion of liquid in shear bands despite increased porosity due to dilatancy. This apparent paradox is resolved by a microscale model for liquid transport at low liquid contents induced by rupture and reconfiguration of ...
