Anomalous large-scale collective motion in granular Brownian vibrators
Yangrui Chen, Jie Zhang
Using Brownian vibrators, we conducted a study on the structures and dynamics of quasi-2d granular materials with packing fractions () ranging from 0.111 to 0.832. Our observati…
A review on shear jamming
Deng Pan, Yinqiao Wang, Hajime Yoshino +2
Jamming is a ubiquitous phenomenon that appears in many soft matter systems, including granular materials, foams, colloidal suspensions, emulsions, polymers, and cells -- when jamm…
Micromechanical measurements of local plastic events in granular materials
Jie Zheng, Aile Sun, Jie Zhang
Understanding the relationship between micromechanics and macroscopic plastic deformation is vital for elucidating the deformation mechanism of amorphous solids, such as granular m…
The yielding of granular matter is marginally stable and critical
Jin Shang, Yinqiao Wang, Yuliang Jin +1
The mechanical yield of dense granular materials is a fascinating rheological phenomenon, beyond which stress no longer increases with strain at a sufficiently large deformation. U…
High-energy velocity tails in uniformly heated granular materials
Yangrui Chen, Jie Zhang
We experimentally investigate the velocity distributions of quasi two-dimensional granular materials, which are homogeneously driven, i.e. uniformly heated, by an electromagnetic v…
Experimental observations of marginal criticality in granular materials
Yinqiao Wang, Jin Shang, Yuliang Jin +1
Two drastically different theories predict the marginal criticality of jamming. The full replica symmetry breaking (fullRSB) theory [1-4] predicts the power-law distributions of we…
