The maximum packing fraction of disordered bidisperse discs: theory and predictions
Raphael Blumenfeld
Predicting the highest packing fraction that disordered packing of bidisperse discs can achieve, , is an important unresolved problem. Such a predictive theory is hindered…
Self-organisation in hard-soft granular mixtures
Haoran Jiang, Dominik Krengel, Takashi Matsushima +1
Self-organisation of granular systems is a key determinant of their macroscopic behaviour and has been studied extensively in assemblies of hard particles. We use numerical simulat…
Random close packing fraction of bidisperse discs: theoretical derivation
Raphael Blumenfeld
Predicting theoretically the highest density, which a disordered packing of discs can achieve, has been a long-standing unresolved problem. Such predictions are hindered by two dif…
Effects of particle angularity on granular self-organization
Dominik Krengel, Haoran Jiang, Takashi Matsushima +1
Recent studies of two-dimensional poly-disperse disc systems revealed a coordinated self-organisation of cell stresses and shapes, with certain distributions collapsing onto a mast…
Detailed balance in non-equilibrium dynamics of granular matter: derivation and implications
Clara C. Wanjura, Amelie Mayländer, Othmar Marti +1
Modelling the dynamics of dense granular media is a long standing challenge and essential to many natural phenomena and technological applications. Here, we trace back puzzling exp…
Fundamental structural characteristics of planar granular assemblies: self-organisation and scaling away friction and initial state
Takashi Matsushima, Raphael Blumenfeld
We identify the fundamental factors determining the microstructural (MS) statistics of granular systems, using numerical experiments on 2D assemblies of polydisperse frictional dis…
