Two-dimensional packing in prolate granular materials.
We investigate the two-dimensional packing of extremely prolate (aspect ratio alpha=L/D>10) granular materials, comparing experiments with Monte Carlo simulations. The average packing fraction of particles with aspect ratio alpha=12 is 0.68+/-0.03. We quantify the orientational correlation of particles and find a correlation length of two particle lengths. The functional form of the orientation...
متن کاملJamming of three-dimensional prolate granular materials.
We have found that the ability of long thin rods to jam into a solidlike state in response to a local perturbation depends upon both the particle aspect ratio and the container size. The dynamic phase diagram in this parameter space reveals a broad transition region separating granular stick-slip and solidlike behavior. In this transition region the pile displays both solid and stick-slip behav...
متن کاملTwo Dimensional Packing of Granular Rods
We investigate the two-dimensional packing properties of prolate granular materials. As the dynamics of formation can be influenced by the method of delivery of the prolate particles to the surface, we experiment with different methods which include changing the viscosity of the medium as well. For an aspect ratio of Length/Diameter = 30 the average packing fraction for the rods is found to be ...
متن کاملPacking of compressible granular materials
3D computer simulations and experiments are employed to study random packings of compressible spherical grains under external confining stress. In the rigid ball limit, we find a continuous transition in which the stress vanishes as (straight phi-straight phi(c))(beta), where straight phi is the (solid phase) volume density. The value of straight phi(c) depends on whether the grains interact vi...
متن کاملDiffusive transport of light in two-dimensional granular materials.
We study photon diffusion in a two-dimensional random packing of monodisperse disks as a simple model of granular material. We apply ray optics approximation to set up a persistent random walk for the photons. We employ Fresnel's intensity reflectance with its rich dependence on the incidence angle and polarization state of the light. We present an analytic expression for the transport-mean-fre...
