Forces on Bins - The Effect of Random Friction

arXiv:cond-mat/9708083 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.57.3170

Abstract

In this note we re-examine the classic Janssen theory for stresses in bins, including a randomness in the friction coefficient. The Janssen analysis relies on assumptions not met in practice; for this reason, we numerically solve the PDEs expressing balance of momentum in a bin, again including randomness in friction.
