Description for Micromechanics of Granular Materials
Hardback. Nearly all solids are compised of grains. However most studies treat materials as a continious solid. The book applies analysis used on loose granular materials to dense grainular materials. Editor(s): Cambou, Bernard; Jean, Michel; Radjai, Fahrang. Series: ISTE. Num Pages: 320 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: TDCG. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 164 x 241 x 25. Weight in Grams: 668.
Nearly all solids are compised of grains. However most studies treat materials as a continious solid. The book applies analysis used on loose granular materials to dense grainular materials. This title’s main focus is devoted to static or dynamic loadings applied to dense materials, although rapid flows and widely dispersed media are also mentioned briefly. Three essential areas are covered: Local variable analysis: Contact forces, displacements and rotations, orientation of contacting particles and fabric tensors are all examples of local variables. Their statistical distributions, such as spatial distribution and possible localization, are analyzed, taking into account experimental results or numerical ... Read more
