Wave propagation in square granular crystals with spherical interstitial intruders.
We investigate the propagation and scattering of highly nonlinear waves in granular systems composed of spheres in contact arranged in a square packing, and study how the presence of small and light spherical interstitial defects, also referred to as intruders, affects the wave propagation. The effects of a single defect are investigated experimentally and compared to numerical simulations, sho...
متن کاملRheology of bidisperse granular mixtures via event driven simulations
The bulk rheology of bidisperse mixtures of granular materials is examined under homogeneous shear flow conditions using the event-driven simulation method. The granular material is modelled as a system of smooth inelastic disks, interacting via the hard-core potential. In order to understand the effect of sizeand mass-disparities, two cases were examined separately, namely, a mixture of differ...
متن کاملIntruder clustering in three-dimensional granular beds.
We present results of computer simulations for neutrally buoyant intruders in a vertically vibrated three-dimensional granular bed of smaller host particles. Under sinusoidal excitation, pairs of intruders interact over a distance of several intruder diameters; a group of intruders forms a cluster. The strength of the interaction grows as the number of intruders is increased. We show that the t...
متن کاملBreaking of equipartition in one-dimensional heat-conducting systems.
Using information-theoretical methods, we studied how energy equipartition is broken in one-dimensional systems under a heat flow composed of alternating particles of two different masses. The average energy stored in particles of different masses is seen to be different in both ideal gases and harmonic lattices.
متن کاملEquipartition of rotational and translational energy in a dense granular gas.
Experiments quantifying the rotational and translational motion of particles in a dense, driven, 2D granular gas floating on an air table reveal that kinetic energy is divided equally between the two translational and one rotational degrees of freedom. This equipartition persists when the particle properties, confining pressure, packing density, or spatial ordering are changed. While the transl...
