Simulation of Gravity Flow of Granular Materials in Silos

Abstract: Abstract. The problem of determining the steady state flow of granular materials in silos under the action of gravity is considered. In the case of a Mohr-Coulomb material, the stress equations correspond to a system of hyperbolic conservation laws with source terms and nonlinear boundary conditions. A higher order Discontinuous Galerkin method is proposed and implemented for the numerical resolution of those equations. The efficiency of the approach is illustrated by the computation of the stress fields induc… Show more

“…Applications of DG methods are predominantly found in fluid/gas dynamics [15,17,22], compressible [23,24]/incompressible flows [25,26], magneto-hydrodynamics [27], granular flows [28], viscoplastic crack growth and chemical transport [29]. Recently, there has been increasing interest in the application of DG methods in solid mechanics.…”

“…The discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods are locally conservative, stable, and high-order accurate methods which can easily handle complex geometries, irregular meshes with hanging nodes, and approximations that have polynomials of different degrees in different elements. These properties, which render them ideal to be used with hp-adaptive strategies, not only have brought these methods into the main stream of computational fluid dynamics, for example, in gas dynamics [11,14,39], compressible [10,[64][65][66] and incompressible [13,32,33] flows, turbomachinery [12], magneto-hydrodynamics [77], granular flows [52,53], semiconductor device simulation [24,25], viscoplastic crack growth and chemical transport [21], viscoelasticity [5,8,51], and transport of contaminant in porous media [1,28,29,41], but have also prompted their application to a wide variety of problems for which they were not originally intended like, for example, Hamilton-Jacobi equations [59,60,62], second-order elliptic problems [4,6,20,22,31,38,67,70], elasticity [46,54], and Korteweg-deVries equations [72,73].…”
