Stagnant Zone Formation in a 2D Bed of Circular and Elongated Grains under Penetration
arXiv:1812.08227 · doi:10.1007/s10035-019-0981-8
Abstract
When a large blunt object penetrates into a granular material, the force response exhibits an initial nonlinear relationship with depth that is widely attributed to the formation of a shear jammed stagnant zone. We present an experimental study of a model 2D granular system that preserves common aspects of slow granular penetration, such as a linear force law for large depths, while also allowing for direct and precise measurement of a stagnant zone. We also probe structural anisotropies throughout the bed and examine their characteristics inside and outside the stagnant zone. Finally, we simultaneously consider effects of concave elongated particle shapes (dimers) and find that while most results are not affected, the relationship between local structure and strain suggests a distinct fragility in the stagnant zone.
