A Monte Carlo packing algorithm for poly-ellipsoids and its comparison with packing generation using Discrete Element Model
Boning Zhang, Eric B. Herbold, Richard A. Regueiro
Granular material is showing very often in geotechnical engineering, petroleum engineering, material science and physics. The packings of the granular material play a very importan…
Propagation of Rarefaction Pulses in Discrete Materials with Strain-Softening Behavior
Eric B Herbold, Vitali F Nesterenko
Discrete materials composed of masses connected by strongly nonlinear links with anomalous behavior (reduction of elastic modulus with strain) have very interesting wave dynamics.…
Tunable frequency band-gap and pulse propagation in a strongly nonlinear diatomic chain
E. B. Herbold, J. Kim, V. F. Nesterenko +2
One-dimensional nonlinear phononic crystals have been assembled from periodic diatomic chains of stainless steel cylinders alternated with Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) spheres. W…
Particle size effect on strength, failure and shock behavior in Polytetrafluoroethylene-Al-W granular composites
E. B. Herbold, V. F. Nesterenko, D. J. Benson +6
The variation of metallic particle size and sample porosity significantly alters the dynamic mechanical properties of high density granular composites processed using a cold isosta…
Highly Nonlinear Solitary Waves in Heterogeneous Periodic Granular Media
Mason A. Porter, Chiara Daraio, Ivan Szelengowicz +2
We use experiments, numerical simulations, and theoretical analysis to investigate the propagation of highly nonlinear solitary waves in periodic arrangements of dimer (two-mass) a…
The influence of metallic particle size on the mechanical properties of PTFE-Al-W powder composites
J. Cai, V. F. Nesterenko, K. S. Vecchio +6
The dynamic mechanical properties of reactive materials (e.g., high density mixtures of polytetraflouroethylene (PTFE), aluminum (Al) and tungsten (W) powders) can be tailored by c…
