Photoelastic study of acoustic wave propagation in grain packings
نویسندگان
چکیده
By means of photoelasticity, we success in visualizing in real time the propagation of acoustic waves in a granular packing of cylinders. As previously mentioned by Nesterenko [1] for the case of spherical grains, the nonlinearity of the contact law between grains induces a dependence of the wave velocity both on its amplitude and on the confinement force. Our experimental procedure allows an access to the local state of stress of individual grains as a function of time with a good accuracy. Our results concerning the wave velocity as a function of the amplitude, and of the confinement force, are compared to theoretical predictions and to the spherical beads case.

We study the nonlinear elastic response of a two-dimensional material to a localized boundary force, with the particular goal of understanding the differences observed between isotropic granular materials and those with hexagonal anisotropy. Corrections to the classical Boussinesq result for the stresses in an infinite half space of a linear, isotropic material are developed in a power series i...
