The crack pattern of indented cohesive granular media
Marie-Julie Dalbe, Pierre Jodlowski, Nicolas Vandenberghe
Cohesive granular materials, like wet sand, retain their shape before yielding under stress. This solid-like behavior is associated with elasticity. As the loading increases, the m…
Unifying impacts in granular matter from quicksand to cornstarch
J John Soundar Jerome, Nicolas Vandenberghe, Yoel Forterre
A sharp transition between liquefaction and transient solidification is observed during impact on a granular suspension depending on the initial packing fraction. We demonstrate, v…
Impact on floating membranes
Nicolas Vandenberghe, Laurent Duchemin
When impacted by a rigid object, a thin elastic membrane with negligible bending rigidity floating on a liquid pool deforms. Two axisymmetric waves radiating from the impact point…
