Anisotropic frictional model for an object sliding in a granular media
René Zuñiga, Carlos Vasconcellos, Baptiste Darbois Texier +1
Several locomotion strategies are based on the anisotropic nature of the forces experienced by the moving body with its environment. We report experiments on the anisotropy of the…
Geometry-controlled phase transition in vibrated granular media
René Zuñiga, Germán Varas, Stéphane Job
We report experiments on the dynamics of vibrated particles constrained in a two-dimensional vertical container, motivated by the following question: how to get the most out of a g…
Localized energy absorbers in Hertzian chains
Carlos Vasconcellos, René Zuñiga, Stéphane Job +1
Energy absorbers and energy-harvesting devices have been under the scope of scientists and engineers for decades to fulfill specific technological needs, mainly concerned with soun…
