From force distribution to average coordination number in frictional granular matter
We study the joint probability distribution of normal and tangential frictional forces in jammed granular media, Pμ(ft , fn), for various values of the friction coefficient μ, especially when μ = ∞. A universal scaling law is found to collapse the data for μ = 0 to ∞, demonstrating a link between the force distribution Pμ(ft , fn) and the average coordination number, z c . The results determine...
متن کاملTraining, Memory and Universal Scaling in Amorphous Frictional Granular Matter
We report a joint experimental and theoretical investigation of cyclic training of amorphous frictional granular assemblies, with special attention to memory formation and retention. Measures of dissipation and compactification are introduced, culminating with a proposed scaling law for the reducing dissipation and increasing memory. This scaling law is expected to be universal, insensitive to ...
متن کاملThe coordination number of granular cylinders
– We report the first experimental measurements of the contact number distribution between randomly packed granular right cylinders (rods and disks) as a function of aspect ratio. The average coordination number 〈z〉 for cylinders varies smoothly with aspect ratio rising from 〈z〉 ∼ 6 for aspect ratios close to one to 〈z〉 ∼ 10 for large aspect ratio. Additionally, our measurements demonstrate the...
متن کاملFrictional Coordination
The notion that business cycles are driven by demand shocks is subtle. I first review some of the conceptual and empirical challenges faced when trying to accommodate this notion in micro-founded, general-equilibrium models. I next review my own research, which sheds new light on the observed business cycles by accommodating frictional coordination in the form of higher-order uncertainty. This ...
متن کاملForce network ensemble: a new approach to static granular matter.
An ensemble approach for force distributions in static granular packings is developed. This framework is based on the separation of packing and force scales, together with an a priori flat measure in the force phase space under the constraints that the contact forces are repulsive and balance on every particle. We show how the formalism yields realistic results, both for disordered and regular ...
