This study introduces a new method to analyze granular packing textures at the particle level, accounting for steric hindrance. The approach uses maximum directional disorder to predict local configurations, showing good agreement with numerical simulations.

Area of Science:

  • Physics
  • Materials Science
  • Engineering

Background:

  • Granular materials exhibit complex behaviors influenced by particle interactions.
  • Characterizing geometrical texture at the particle scale is crucial for understanding bulk properties.
  • Steric hindrance effects significantly impact granular packing configurations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel method for characterizing geometrical texture in granular packing.
  • To incorporate steric hindrance effects into the analysis of particle-scale texture.
  • To validate the proposed method against numerical data.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a method based on maximum directional disorder (statistical entropy).
  • Integration of strain-induced anisotropy of the contact network.
