Simulation of catalytic reactions in open-cell foam structures
Sebastian Mühlbauer, Severin Strobl, Matthew Coleman +1
We describe a technique for particle-based simulations of heterogeneous catalysis in open-cell foam structures, which is based on isotropic Stochastic Rotation Dynamics (iSRD) toge…
Velocity distribution of a homogeneously driven two-dimensional granular gas
Christian Scholz, Thorsten Pöschel
The theory of homogeneously driven granular gases of hard particles predicts that the stationary state is characterized by a velocity distribution function with overpopulated high-…
Hourglass of constant weight
Volker Becker, Thorsten Poeschel
In contrast to a still common belief, a steadily flowing hourglass changes its weight in the course of time. We will show that, nevertheless, it is possible to construct hourglasse…
Coefficient of restitution and linear dashpot model revisited
Thomas Schwager, Thorsten Poeschel
With the assumption of a linear-dashpot interaction force, we compute the coefficient of restitution as a function of the elastic and dissipative material constants, k and gamma by…
Close-packed floating clusters: granular hydrodynamics beyond the freezing point?
Baruch Meerson, Thorsten Poeschel, Yaron Bromberg
Monodisperse granular flows often develop regions with hexagonal close packing of particles. We investigate this effect in a system of inelastic hard spheres driven from below by a…
