Non-solitary wave response generated by "soft" striker impact on strongly nonlinear weakly dissipative granular chains
Po-Hsun Chiu, Vitali F. Nesterenko
It is well known that striker impact on strongly nonlinear, non-dissipative or weakly dissipative granular chains assembled from spheres (or cylinders with flat ends and spheres) h…
Nature of short high amplitude pulses in a periodic dissipative laminate metamaterial
Pedro Franco Navarro, David J. Benson, Vitali F. Nesterenko
We study the evolution of high amplitude stress pulses in periodic dissipative laminates taking into account the nonlinear constitutive equations of the components and their dissip…
Attenuation of short strongly nonlinear stress pulses in dissipative granular chains
S. Y. Wang, V. F. Nesterenko
Attenuation of short, strongly nonlinear stress pulses in chains of spheres and cylinders was investigated experimentally and numerically for two ratios of their masses keeping the…
Major steps in the discovery of adiabatic shear bands
Bradley Dodd, Stephen M. Walley, Rong Yang +1
The ASB phenomenon was first described by Russian researchers in 1928 and 1935. Translations of both papers are included.
Transmission and reflection of strongly nonlinear solitary waves at granular interfaces
A. M. Tichler, L. R. Gomez, N. Upadhyaya +3
The interaction of a solitary wave front with an interface formed by two strongly-nonlinear non-cohesive granular lattices displays rich behaviour, characterized by the breakdown o…
Mechanisms of fragmentation of Al-W granular composites under dynamic loading
K. L. Olney, V. F. Nesterenko, D. J. Benson
Numerical simulations of Aluminum (Al) and Tungsten (W) granular composite rings under various dynamic loading conditions caused by explosive loading were examined. Three competing…
