Abstract:

The frictional collapse of an assembly of equisized spheres is studied by a discrete element model. The macroscopic constitutive response is determined as a function of the level of Coulomb friction between particles. It is found that the level of Coulomb friction has a strong effect upon the relative proportion of sliding and rolling between particles, and consequently upon the macroscopic strength of the granular assembly. The discrete element predictions are shown to be in good agreement with experimental results obtained from triaxial tests on an aggregate of steel spheres. It is demonstra

Abstract:

The micro-scale geometric arrangement of pores was quantitatively characterised for monodisperse granular assemblies, particularly in relation to pore volume distribution and pore orientation characteristics. Using physical experiments and numerical simulations, the pore volume distribution was uniquely described by the analytical k-gamma distribution function [1-2]. A pore orientation tensor was defined to determine the preferred orientation of individual pores. This was subsequently used to define a global orientation tensor that revealed an isotropic pore network for the monodisperse granul

An experimental-numerical hybrid technique has been developed to predict the intergranular contact load transfer in granular media subjected to explosive loading. The granular media were simulated by assemblies of circular disks in contact. The peak contact load transfer coefficients (i. e., the ratio of the maximum output contact load to the input contact load as a function of the contact angles) of a given particle were obtained through controlled experimental studies. These coefficients, along with the principle of superposition, were then used to predict the peak contact loads in several r

Abstract:

A very staggering result that has been constantly highlighted in granular media is that the shear strength of granular assemblies is independent of the particle size dispersity. In other words, a packing composed of monodisperse particles has similar strength properties to those of polydisperse systems. This has been shown numerically for the simplified case of disc and polygon assemblies in 2D and spheres in 3D. In this paper, we use three-dimensional contact dynamics simulations to revisit these results for the more complex case of assemblies composed of highly polydisperse rigid polyhedra.

The effect of initial granular structural conditions on load transmission patterns was experimentally investigated. Two types of granular structures were prepared by laminating cylindrical model particles of different diameters, to which photoelastic sheets were attached. Two-dimensional, reflective photoelasticity tests were performed under two granular conditions: (1) a uniform structure without initial defects and (2) with initial local imperfections at the bottom of the granular assembly. Two granular assemblies were tested for uniaxial compressive loading and shallow foundation loading co

Abstract:

Granular materials demonstrate unique mechanical properties stemming from their discrete nature. At large length scales granular assemblies are often viewed from the perspective of continuum theory where they show complex behaviour such as elastic and plastic anisotropy related to the load and deformation history. This complex behaviour is inextricably linked to the micromechanics of load sharing and force transmission at the particle level. At these scales, bulk stress is not shared homogeneously between particles, but rather by a network of `force chains' that form a skeleton supporting the

Granular materials (assemblies of contacting grains with inter-granular porosity) form a vast family of materials important in both natural and industrial contexts. Under mechanical loads such systems show complex behaviours relating to the inter- and intra-granular stresses, strains and force transmission as well as the individual grain kinematics and interactions leading to multi-scale, heterogeneous behaviour. To understand such systems requires detailed understanding of these different structures and processes at the pertinent scales. This paper provides a brief overview of some new opport

This paper focuses on the discrete expression of stress tensors of assemblies containing discrete particles with volumetric loads acting on them in addition to boundary forces. Instead of the concept of continuum point, a domain containing a finite number of grains is considered. This domain is replaced by a suitably chosen equivalent continuum whose average stress is expressed—assuming that the grains are in equilibrium—in terms of contact forces and properly defined branch vectors. Symmetry of the stress tensor is also analyzed.
