Pulse Velocity in a Granular Chain

arXiv:cond-mat/0309070 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.69.037601

Abstract

We discuss the applicability of two very different analytic approaches to the study of pulse propagation in a chain of particles interacting via a Hertz potential, namely, a continuum model and a binary collision approximation. While both methods capture some qualitative features equally well, the first is quantitatively good for softer potentials and the latter is better for harder potentials.
