Random-close packing limits for monodisperse and polydisperse hard spheres.
We investigate how the densities of inherent structures, which we refer to as the closest jammed configurations, are distributed for packings of 10(4) frictionless hard spheres. A computational algorithm is introduced to generate closest jammed configurations and determine corresponding densities. Closest jamming densities for monodisperse packings generated with high compression rates using Lu...
متن کاملDeformation Modes for Assemblies of Frictionless Polydisperse Spheres
The challenge of dealing with cohesive powders during storage, handling and transport are widely known in the process and pharmaceutical industries. Simulations with the discrete element method (DEM) provide further insight into the local microstructure of bulk materials. In this work, the DEM approach is presented to investigate the flow behavior of granular systems subjected to different mode...
متن کاملStructure of marginally jammed polydisperse packings of frictionless spheres.
We model the packing structure of a marginally jammed bulk ensemble of polydisperse spheres. To this end we expand on the granocentric model [Clusel et al., Nature (London) 460, 611 (2009)], explicitly taking into account rattlers. This leads to a relationship between the characteristic parameters of the packing, such as the mean number of neighbors and the fraction of rattlers, and the radial ...
متن کاملRandom close packing revisited: ways to pack frictionless disks.
We create collectively jammed (CJ) packings of 50-50 bidisperse mixtures of smooth disks in two dimensions (2D) using an algorithm in which we successively compress or expand soft particles and minimize the total energy at each step until the particles are just at contact. We focus on small systems in 2D and thus are able to find nearly all of the collectively jammed states at each system size....
متن کاملFreezing of polydisperse hard spheres
Freezing of polydisperse hard spheres is studied by Monte Carlo simulation and the results are interpreted with a cell model of the solid. The results supplement an earlier study of freezing of nearly monodisperse hard spheres and, within the assumption of a substitutionally disordered solid, a complete description of the freezing behavior is obtained. The density and polydispersity of the prec...
