A master equation for force distributions in soft particle packings - Irreversible mechanical responses to isotropic compression and decompression
Kuniyasu Saitoh, Vanessa Magnanimo, Stefan Luding
Mechanical responses of soft particle packings to quasi-static deformations are determined by the microscopic restructuring of force-chain networks, where complex non-affine displa…
Macroscopic model with anisotropy based on micro-macro informations
Nishant Kumar, Stefan Luding, Vanessa Magnanimo
Physical experiments can characterize the elastic response of granular materials in terms of macroscopic state-variables, namely volume (packing) fraction and stress, while the mic…
Tuning the bulk properties of bidisperse granular mixtures by small amount of fines
Nishant Kumar, Vanessa Magnanimo, Marco Ramaioli +1
We study the bulk properties of isotropic bidisperse granular mixtures using discrete element simulations. The focus is on the influence of the size (radius) ratio of the two const…
A Master equation for force distributions in polydisperse frictional particles
Kuniyasu Saitoh, Vanessa Magnanimo, Stefan Luding
An incremental evolution equation, i.e. a Master equation in statistical mechanics, is introduced for force distributions in polydisperse frictional particle packings. As basic ing…
A contact model for sticking of adhesive meso-particles
Abhinendra Singh, Vanessa Magnanimo, Stefan Luding
The interaction between visco-elasto-plastic and adhesive particles is the subject of this study, where "meso-particles" are introduced, i.e., simplified particles, whose contact m…
