Softer than soft: diving into squishy granular matter
Jonathan Barés, Manuel Cárdenas-Barrantes, David Cantor +2
Softer than soft, squishy granular matter is composed of grains capable of significantly changing their shape (typically larger than 10% of deformation) without tearing or breaking…
Micromechanical description of the compaction of soft pentagon assemblies
Manuel Cárdenas-Barrantes, David Cantor, Jonathan Barés +2
We analyze the isotropic compaction of assemblies composed of soft pentagons interacting through classical Coulomb friction via numerical simulations. The effect of the initial par…
Compaction of mixtures of rigid and highly deformable particles: a micro-mechanical model
Manuel Cárdenas-Barrantes, David Cantor, Jonathan Barés +2
We analyze the isotropic compaction of mixtures composed of rigid and deformable incompressible particles by the non-smooth contact dynamics approach (NSCD). The deformable bodies…
Identification of rolling resistance as a shape parameter in sheared granular media
Nicolas Estrada, Émilien Azema, Farhang Radjaï +1
Using contact dynamics simulations, we compare the effect of rolling resistance at the contacts in granular systems composed of disks with the effect of angularity in granular syst…
