Inter-dependence of the volume and stress ensembles and equipartition in statistical mechanics of granular systems

Raphael Blumenfeld, Joe F. Jordan, Sam F. Edwards

We discuss the statistical mechanics of granular matter and derive several significant results. First, we show that, contrary to common belief, the volume and stress ensembles are…
