MULTI-PARTICLE STRUCTURES IN NON-SEQUENTIALLY REORGANIZED HARD SPHERE DEPOSITS

From MaRDI portal
Publication:4425281



Abstract: We have examined extended structures, bridges and arches, in computer generated, non-sequentially stabilized, hard sphere deposits. The bridges and arches have well defined distributions of sizes and shapes. The distribution functions reflect the contraints associated with hard particle packing and the details of the restructuring process. A subpopulation of string-like bridges has been identified. Bridges are fundamental microstructural elements in real granular systems and their sizes and shapes dominate considerations of structural properties and flow instabilities such as jamming.
