Kinetics of a frictional granular motor
Julian Talbot, Ricky D. Wildman, Pascal Viot
Within the framework of a Boltzmann-Lorentz equation, we analyze the dynamics of a granular rotor immersed in a bath of thermalized particles in the presence of a frictional torque…
Reversible adsorption on a random site surface
C. Oleyar, J. Talbot
We examine the reversible adsorption of hard spheres on a random site surface in which the adsorption sites are uniformly and randomly distributed on a plane. Each site can be occu…
Application of the Gillespie algorithm to a granular intruder particle
J. Talbot, P. Viot
We show how the Gillespie algorithm, originally developed to describe coupled chemical reactions, can be used to perform numerical simulations of a granular intruder particle colli…
Optimum Monte Carlo Simulations: Some Exact Results
J. Talbot, G. Tarjus, P. Viot
We obtain exact results for the acceptance ratio and mean squared displacement in Monte Carlo simulations of the simple harmonic oscillator in dimensions. When the trial displa…
Wall-Enhanced Convection in Vibrofluidized Granular Systems
J. Talbot, P. Viot
An event-driven molecular dynamics simulation of inelastic hard spheres contained in a cylinder and subject to strong vibration reproduces accurately experimental results[1] for a…
Aging and response properties in the parking-lot model
J. Talbot, G. Tarjus, P. Viot
An adsorption-desorption (or parking-lot) model can reproduce qualitatively the densification kinetics and other features of a weakly vibrated granular material. Here we study the…
The adsorption-desorption model and its application to vibrated granular materials
J. Talbot, G. Tarjus, P. Viot
We investigate both analytically and by numerical simulation the kinetics of a microscopic model of hard rods adsorbing on a linear substrate, a model which is relevant for compact…
Sluggish Kinetics in the Parking Lot Model
J. Talbot, G. Tarjus, P. Viot
We investigate, both analytically and by computer simulation, the kinetics of a microscopic model of hard rods adsorbing on a linear substrate. For a small, but finite desorption r…
