The role of particle shape in computational modelling of granular matter
Granular matter is ubiquitous in nature and is present in diverse forms in important engineering, industrial and natural processes. Particle-based...

Does cavity dimension of vibrated granular container matter?
The dissipation behavior of granular balls in a Q-2D closed container subjected to vertical vibration is investigated by means of Discrete Element...

Emergent memory from tap** collisions in active granular matter
In an equilibrium thermal environment, random elastic collisions between background particles and a tracer establish the picture of Brownian motion...

Quasi-crystalline order in vibrating granular matter
Quasi-crystals are aperiodic structures with crystallographic properties that are not compatible with that of a single unit cell. Their discovery in...

Determination of some engineering properties of Jojoba granular matter [Simmondsia chinensis]
Jojoba granular matter has received exceptional attention since it contains a unique waxy oil. The Jojoba plant is a promising crop for arid and...

Vibrational spectrum of Granular packings with random matrices
AbstractThe vibrational spectrum of granular packings can be used as a signature of the jamming transition, with the density of states at zero...

Energy transport and dissipation in granular systems
The study of energy transport in granular systems can involve a number of different angles to view the problem; for example, one can propagate...

Intruders cooperatively interact with a wall into granular matter
When a cylindrical object penetrates granular matter near a vertical boundary, it experiences two effects: its center of mass moves horizontally away...

Predicting the crystalline phase generation effectively in monosized granular matter using machine learning
AbstractWhen monosized granular matter is subjected to continuous mechanical disturbance, crystallization can be observed. The granular...

Statistics of intermittent granular flow from confined tabletop experiments
It is often said that “granular matter is ubiquitous”. Many natural components and human products look and behave like grains: stones, debris, soils,...

Granular meta-material: response of a bending beam
Jammed granular matter can be considered a meta-material that behaves viscoelastic for small deformations. We characterize the elastic properties of...

Morphological study of granular–granular impact craters through time-of-flight cameras: from concept to automation in Python
Laboratory made granular–granular impact craters have been used as model analogues of planetary impact craters. These kind of craters have been...

Doublet craters originated by low speed impact experiments in granular matter
AbstractWe studied the formation of doublet craters generated by binary projectiles (steel beads or granular agglomerates) impacting simultaneously...

On the Van der Waals model on granular matters with truncated M-fractional derivative
In this work, exact solutions of the Van der Waals model (vdWm) are investigated with a new algebraic analytical method. The closed-form analysis of...

Granular convergence as an iterated local map
Granular convergence is a property of a granular pack as it is repeatedly sheared in a cyclic, quasistatic fashion, as the packing configuration...

Fluid effects in model granular flows
Pore fluid plays a crucial role in many granular flows, especially those in geophysical settings. However, the transition in behaviour between dry...
