This study introduces a new averaging method for granular materials, effectively linking discrete and continuum variables across all flow types. This approach accurately determines macroscopic properties in granular flows, even near boundaries.

Area of Science:

  • Physics
  • Engineering
  • Materials Science

Background:

  • Granular materials exhibit complex behaviors that are challenging to model.
  • Bridging discrete and continuum mechanics is crucial for accurate simulations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel averaging method for linking discrete and continuum variables in granular materials.
  • To demonstrate the method's applicability across various flow regimes and boundary conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Developed an averaging technique to connect discrete particle simulation (DPS) data to continuum variables.
  • Applied the method to analyze macroscopic properties in a hopper flow simulation.

Main Results:

  • The averaging method is effective for all flow regimes, including those influenced by physical boundaries.
