Loading-unloading contact law for micro-crystalline cellulose particles under large deformations
Yasasvi Bommireddy, Ankit Agarwal, Vikas Yettella +2
A semi-empirical mechanistic contact law for micro-crystalline cellulose (Avicel PH-200) particles is proposed and characterized experimentally using force-displacement curves obta…
Statistical characterization of microstructure evolution during compaction of granular systems composed of spheres with hardening plastic behavior
Marcial Gonzalez, Payam Poorsolhjouy, Alexander Thomas +2
An extensive numerical campaign of particle mechanics calculations that predict microstructure formation and evolution during die compaction, up to relative densities close to one,…
Quantification of lubrication and particle size distribution effects on tensile strength and stiffness of tablets
Sonia M. Razavi, Marcial Gonzalez, Alberto M. Cuitiño
We adopt a Quality by Design (QbD) paradigm to better control the mechanical properties of tablets. To this end, the effect of particle size distribution, lubricant concentration,…
General and mechanistic optimal relationships for tensile strength of doubly convex tablets under diametrical compression
Sonia M. Razavi, Marcial Gonzalez, Alberto M. Cuitino
We propose a general framework for determining optimal relationships for tensile strength of doubly convex tablets under diametrical compression. This approach is based on the obse…
Mesoscopic approach to granular crystal dynamics
Marcial Gonzalez, Jinkyu Yang, Chiara Daraio +1
We present a mesoscopic approach to granular crystal dynamics, which comprises a three-dimensional finite-element model and a one-dimensional regularized contact model. The approac…
