Local rheological measurements in the granular flow around an intruder

Abstract: The rheological properties of granular matter within a two-dimensional flow around a moving disk is investigated experimentally. Using a combination of photoelastic and standard tessellation techniques, the strain and stress tensors are estimated at the grain scale in the time-averaged flow field around a large disk pulled at constant velocity in an assembly of smaller disks. On the one hand, one observes inhomogeneous shear rate and strongly localized shear stress and pressure fields. On the other hand, a sig… Show more

“…Although we calculate F á ñ by averaging the instantaneous force acting on the rod in the steady state regime, N jam should be measured using this scheme instead of simple hydrostatic form. In addition, we compute the stress tensor for each particle including the ones conforming rod as follows (by assuming ith particle has a diameter D i and is in contact with jth particle) [31],…”

“…that are typically used to apply stress. Recent granular point-load studies have focused on the dynamical response of a single-grain intruder, mostly in quasi-two-dimensional (2D) beds of disks [9][10][11][12][13][14]. In all cases, the dynamics is affected by the packing fraction and the strength of the driving mechanism, whether the intruder is driven at a constant velocity, by a constant force, or by a continually loading spring.…”

“…Recent studies show that an intruder penetrating a granular medium exhibits both position and velocity fluctuations due to formation and buckling of force chains [1,2,3,4,5]. At constant force mode-using force feedback mechanism, intruder displacements were found to exhibit large fluctuations in the direction of the dragging force.…”
