Power-Laws in Nonlinear Granular Chain under Gravity
The signal generated by a weak impulse propagates in an oscillatory way and dispersively in a gravitationally compacted granular chain. For the power-law type contact force, we show analytically that the type of dispersion follows power-laws in depth. The power-law for grain displacement signal is given by h − 1 4 (1− 1 p ) where h and p denote depth and the exponent of contact force, and the p...
متن کاملPower-Laws of Nonlinear Granular Chain under Gravity
The soliton propagating in a horizontal granular chain with Hertzian contact damps due to graity in a vertical chain. We find that the type of damping is power-law in depth and the exponent of power-law for the amplitude approaches −1/12 for weak impulse. We also show that other quantities such as grain velocity, kinetic energy, and number of grains participating to signal as well as phase and ...
متن کاملPower-Law Behaviors in Nonlinearly Coupled Granular Chain under Gravity
We find power-law behaviors of grain velocity in both propagation and backscattering in a gravitationally compacted granular chain with nonlinear contact force. We focus on the leading peak of the velocity signal which decreases in a power-law d−α, where d is the location of the peak, as the signal goes down. The ratio of backscattered to incident leading velocity also follows a power-law d −β ...
متن کاملCreeping granular motion under variable gravity levels.
In a rotating tumbler that is more than one-half filled with a granular material, a core of material forms that should ideally rotate with the tumbler. However, the core rotates slightly faster than the tumbler (precession) and decreases in size (erosion). The precession and erosion of the core provide a measure of the creeping granular motion that occurs beneath a continuously flowing flat sur...
متن کاملNonlinear waves in a strongly nonlinear resonant granular chain
We explore a recently proposed locally resonant granular system bearing harmonic internal resonators in a chain of beads interacting via Hertzian elastic contacts. In this system, we propose the existence of two types of configurations: (a) small-amplitude periodic traveling waves and (b) dark-breather solutions, i.e., exponentially localized, time periodic states mounted on top of a non-vanish...
