Contact behaviour of simulated rough spheres generated with spherical harmonics
Deheng Wei, Chongpu Zhai, Dorian A. H. Hanaor +1
Normal contact behaviour between non adhesive fractal rough particles is studied using a finite element method (FEM). A series of spherical grain surfaces with distinguished roughn…
An unexplored valley of binary packing: The loose jamming state
Si Suo, Chongpu Zhai, Minglong Xu +2
We present a theoretical prediction on random close packing factor ϕ_RCP^b of binary granular packings based on the hard-sphere fluid theory. An unexplored regime is unravelled, wh…
Shear-induced droplet mobility within porous surfaces
Si Suo, Haibo Zhao, Shervin Bagheri +2
Droplet mobility under shear flows is important in a wide range of engineering applications, e.g., fog collection, and self-cleaning surfaces. For structured surfaces to achieve su…
