This project explores the mechanics of energy dissipation in granular materials through experimental and theoretical studies. It aims to quantify energy dissipation mechanisms and develop models to better understand behaviors such as shear band formation and material failure.
Granular materials are of interest to different fields of the physical sciences and engineering.
To model their behaviour, either a solid- or fluid mechanics approach is used.
Rather than deforming uniformly, granular fluids develop thin shear-bands, which mark areas of flow, material failure and energy dissipation.
The MEDIGRA project proposes a thorough experimental, theoretical and numerical study of the Mechanics of Energy DIssipation in dense GRAnular materials.
The fundamental challenge fa…
