A Study of the Wave Propagation Velocity in Granular Soils Using Discrete Element Method (DEM)
In the present paper, discrete element method (DEM) is used to study wave propagation phenomenon in granular soils. The effect of factors such as coefficient of friction, frequency, normal stiffness and soil gradation on the wave velocity is studied. Using the wall motion based on the sinusoidal function is the method of loading used in this simulation, through which the pressure wave is transf...
متن کاملEffects of cohesion on the surface angle and velocity profiles of granular material in a rotating drum.
Large scale, discrete element simulations are performed to study the dynamics of a rotating drum partially filled with cohesive granular particles. The continuous avalanche regime is explored using a simple model for interparticle cohesion in order to simulate the effects of granular media in the presence of a wetting fluid. The shape of the free surface for cohesionless particles ranges from f...
متن کاملAnisotropic stress and shear wave velocity: DEM studies of a crystalline granular material
Discrete element modelling (DEM) of a face-centred cubic assembly of spherical particles has been used to study the influence of anisotropic stress states on the shear wave velocity of a granular material. The shear waves were generated and detected in a way equivalent to the use of bender elements in laboratory testing. Comparisons are presented between the discrete element simulations and ana...
متن کاملInstantaneous velocity profiles during granular avalanches.
We perform experimental measurements of the instantaneous velocity profile of the flowing layer during granular avalanches. In the pile depth, the velocity profile follows a pure exponential decrease in contrast with steady flows that are known to exhibit a well developed upper linear part. The velocity profile in the pile width is a plug flow with two exponential boundary layers at the walls. ...
متن کاملYADE-OPEN DEM: an open–source software using a discrete element method to simulate granular material
Purpose YADE–OPEN DEM is an open source software based on the Discrete Element Method which uses object oriented programming techniques. The paper describes the software architecture. Design/methodology/approach The DEM chosen uses position, orientation, velocity and angular velocity as independent variables of simulated particles which are subject to explicit leapfrog time–integration scheme (...
