The equilibrium phase in heterogeneous Hertzian chains

Michelle Przedborski, Surajit Sen, Thad A. Harroun

We examine the long-term behaviour of non-integrable, energy-conserved, 1D systems of macroscopic grains interacting via a contact-only generalized Hertz potential and held between…

Long-term behaviour of Hertzian chains between fixed walls is really equilibrium

Michelle Przedborski, Surajit Sen, Thad A. Harroun

We examine the long-term behaviour of non-integrable, energy-conserved, 1D systems of macroscopic grains interacting via a contact-only generalized Hertz potential and held between…

Fluctuations in Hertz chains at equilibrium

Michelle Przedborski, Surajit Sen, Thad A. Harroun

We examine the long-term behaviour of non-integrable, energy-conserved, 1D systems of macroscopic grains interacting via a contact-only generalized Hertz potential and held between…

Localizing energy in granular materials

Michelle A. Przedborski, Thad A. Harroun, Surajit Sen

A device for absorbing and storing short duration impulses in an initially uncompressed one-dimensional granular chain is presented. Simply stated, short regions of sufficiently so…

Granular chains with soft boundaries: Slowing the transition to quasi-equilibrium

Michelle Przedborski, Thad A. Harroun, Surajit Sen

We present here a detailed numerical study of the dynamical behaviour of `soft' uncompressed grains in a granular chain where the grains interact via the intrinsically nonlinear He…
