Materials Behavior as Mechanism Ensembles: A Probabilistic Framework for Emergent Behaviors

Brad L. Boyce, Mitchell A. Wood, Krishna Garikipati +16

Materials behavior is often treated as a deterministic mapping from structure to properties, yet many important phenomena emerge from the conditional activation of multiple mechani…

Granular packing simulation protocols: tap, press and relax

A. P. Santos, Ishan Srivastava, Leonardo E. Silbert +2

Granular matter takes many paths to pack. Gentle compression, compaction or repetitive tapping can happen in natural and industrial processes. The path influences the packing micro…

Fractal dimensions of jammed packings with power-law particle size distributions in two and three dimensions

Joseph M. Monti, Ishan Srivastava, Leonardo E. Silbert +2

Static structure factors are computed for large-scale, mechanically stable, jammed packings of frictionless spheres (three dimensions) and disks (two dimensions) with broad, power-…

Steric effects in induced-charge electro-osmosis for strong electric fields

J. Galen Wang, Daniel R. Ladiges, Ishan Srivastava +4

We study the role of steric effects on the induced-charge electro-osmosis (ICEO) phenomenon using a recently developed mesoscale fluid model. A hybrid Eulerian-Lagrangian method is…

Large-scale frictionless jamming with power-law particle size distributions

Joseph M. Monti, Joel T. Clemmer, Ishan Srivastava +3

Due to significant computational expense, discrete element method simulations of jammed packings of size-dispersed spheres with size ratios greater than 1:10 have remained elusive,…

Fluctuations and power-law scaling of dry, frictionless granular rheology near the hard-particle limit

A. P. Santos, Ishan Srivastava, Leonardo E. Silbert +2

The flow of frictionless granular particles is studied with stress-controlled discrete element modeling simulations for systems varying in size from 300 to 100,000 particles. The v…

Shear Is Not Always Simple: Rate-Dependent Effects of Flow Type on Granular Rheology

Joel T. Clemmer, Ishan Srivastava, Gary S. Grest +1

Despite there being an infinite variety of types of flow, most rheological studies focus on a single type such as simple shear. Using discrete element simulations, we explore bulk…

Jamming of Bidisperse Frictional Spheres

Ishan Srivastava, Scott A. Roberts, Joel T. Clemmer +3

By generalizing a geometric argument for frictionless spheres, a model is proposed for the jamming density of mechanically stable packings of bidisperse, frictional spheres.…

Flow and Arrest in Stressed Granular Materials

Ishan Srivastava, Leonardo E. Silbert, Jeremy B. Lechman +1

Flowing granular materials often abruptly arrest if not driven by sufficient applied stresses. Such abrupt cessation of motion can be economically expensive in industrial materials…

Granular packings with sliding, rolling and twisting friction

A. P. Santos, Dan S. Bolintineanu, Gary S. Grest +4

Intuition tells us that a rolling or spinning sphere will eventually stop due to the presence of friction and other dissipative interactions. The resistance to rolling and spinning…
