Vibration Improves Performance in Granular Jamming Grippers
Raghav Mishra, Tyson Philips, Gary W. Delaney +1
Granular jamming is a popular soft robotics technology that has seen recent widespread applications including industrial gripping, surgical robotics and haptics. However, to date t…
Shape, Size, and Fabrication Effects in 3D Printed Granular Jamming Grippers
David Howard, Jack O'Connor, James Brett +1
Granular jamming is a popular soft actuation mechanism that provides high stiffness variability with minimum volume variation. Jamming is particularly interesting from a design per…
Non-universal Voronoi cell shapes in amorphous ellipsoid packings
Fabian M. Schaller, Sebastian C. Kapfer, James E. Hilton +8
In particulate systems with short-range interactions, such as granular matter or simple fluids, local structure plays a pivotal role in determining the macroscopic physical propert…
Local origin of global contact numbers in frictional ellipsoid packings
Fabian M. Schaller, Max Neudecker, Mohammad Saadatfar +3
In particulate soft matter systems the average number of contacts of a particle is an important predictor of the mechanical properties of the system. Using X-ray tomography, we…
Combining tomographic imaging and DEM simulations to investigate the structure of experimental sphere packings
Gary W Delaney, T. Di Matteo, Tomaso Aste
We combine advanced image reconstruction techniques from computed X-ray micro tomography (XCT) with state-of-the-art discrete element method simulations (DEM) to study granular mat…
