چکیده
We propose a Langevin model with Coulomb friction. Through the analysis of the corresponding Fokker-Planck equation, we have obtained the steady velocity distribution function under the influence of the external field.

Non-Gaussian Velocity Distribution Function in a Vibrating Granular Bed
The simulation of granular particles in a quasi-two-dimensional container under vertical vibration as an experimental accessible model for granular gases is performed. The velocity distribution function obeys an exponential-like function during the vibration and deviates from the exponential function in free-cooling states. It is confirmed that this exponentiallike distribution function is prod...
متن کاملNon-linear Brownian motion: the problem of obtaining the thermal Langevin equation for a non-Gaussian bath
The non-linear dissipation corresponding to a non-Gaussian thermal bath is introduced together with a multiplicative white noise source in the phenomenological Langevin description for the velocity of a particle moving in some potential landscape. Deriving the closed Kolmogorov’s equation for the joint probability distribution of the particle displacement and its velocity by use of functional m...
متن کاملBrownian motion in inhomogeneous suspensions.
The Langevin description of Brownian motion in inhomogeneous suspensions is here revisited. Inhomogeneous suspensions are characterized by a position-dependent friction coefficient, which can significantly influence the dynamics of the suspended particles. Outstanding examples are suspensions in confinement or in the presence of a temperature gradient. The Langevin approach in inhomogeneous sys...
متن کاملFinding transition paths and rate coefficients through accelerated Langevin dynamics.
We present a technique to resolve the rare event problem for a Langevin equation describing a system with thermally activated transitions. A transition event within a given time interval (0,t(f)) can be described by a transition path that has an activation part during (0,t(M)) and a deactivation part during (t(M),t(f))(0<t(M)<t(f)). The activation path is governed by a Langevin equation with ne...
متن کاملA LES-Langevin model for turbulence
We propose a new model of turbulence for use in large-eddy simulations (LES). The turbulent force, represented here by the turbulent Lamb vector, is divided in two contributions. The contribution including only subfilter fields is deterministically modeled through a classical eddy-viscosity. The other contribution including both filtered and subfilter scales is dynamically computed as solution ...
