Kinetic theory for strong uniform shear flow of granular media at high density
arXiv:1710.04480 · doi:10.1051/epjconf/201714003064
Abstract
We discuss the uniform shear flow of a fluidized granular bed composed of monodisperse Hertzian spheres. Considering high densities around the glass transition density of inelastic Hertzian spheres, we report kinetic theory expressions for the Newtonian viscosity as well as the Bagnold coefficient. We discuss the dependence of the transport coefficients on density and coefficient of restitution.
