Stress Distributions within Curved Highly Frictional Granular Stockpiles
The problem of the determination of the horizontal and vertical force distributions at the base of a stockpile is a famous outstanding problem in granular theory, and has been exhaustively examined. In all past studies, the shape of the stockpile is assumed to be either a twodimensional wedge or a three-dimensional cone. Here we present the only known exact analytical solutions of the governing...
متن کاملConstitutive relations for cohesionless frictional granular materials
Based on the micro-mechanical model recently developed by Nemat-Nasser S. (J. Mech. Phys. Solids 48 (2000) 1541), a three-dimensional continuum mechanics model is presented for the deformation of granular materials which carry the applied load through frictional contacts. The model incorporates the anisotropy (or fabric) which develops as a frictional granular mass is deformed in shear, and inc...
متن کاملAcoustics and frictional sliding in granular materials
We study numerically the propagation of an acoustic pulse through a loaded granular material under the hypothesis that the conventional modeling of solid friction used in soft sphere discrete element modeling remains valid at acoustic time scales. As a pulse crosses the material, it temporarily suppresses sliding contacts, making it difficult to prepare states that correspond to experimental co...
متن کاملStress Fluctuations for Continuously Sheared Granular Materials.
Experiments on continuously sheared granular materials (glass spheres) with diameters 1.0 # d # 5 mm show large fluctuations in the normal stress, sstd. Experiments are carried out in an annular Couette geometry for rotation rates 0.003 , Ù u , 1 radys. Power spectra from sstd, Psvd, show rate invariance in the fluctuations: Ù uPsvd is a function only of vy Ù u, independent of Ù u. Ù uPsvd depe...
متن کاملJamming and Stress Propagation in Granular Materials
We have recently developed some simple continuum models of static granular media which display “fragile” behaviour: they predict that the medium is unable to support certain types of infinitesimal load (which we call “incompatible” loads) without plastic rearrangement. We argue that a fragile description may be appropriate when the mechanical integrity of the medium arises adaptively, in respon...
