Instability of the symmetric Couette-flow in a granular gas: hydrodynamic field profiles and transport
M. Sasvari, J. Kertesz, D. E. Wolf
We investigate the inelastic hard disk gas sheared by two parallel bumpy walls (Couette-flow). In our molecular dynamic simulations we found a sensitivity to the asymmetries of the…
Self-Quenched Dynamics
Janos Torok, Supriya Krishnamurthy, Janos Kertesz +1
We introduce a model for the slow relaxation of an energy landscape caused by its local interaction with a random walker whose motion is dictated by the landscape itself. By choosi…
Self-organization, Localization of Shear Bands and Aging in Loose Granular Materials
Janos Torok, Supriya Krishnamurthy, Janos Kertesz +1
We introduce a mesoscopic model for the formation and evolution of shear bands in loose granular media. Numerical simulations reveal that the system undergoes a non-trivial self-or…
