Solitary waves in the granular chain
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce the physics of solitary waves in alignments of elastic beads, such as glass beads or stainless steel beads, and show that any impulse propagates as a new kind of highly interactive solitary wave through such an alignment and that the existence of these waves seems to present a need to re-examine the very definition of equilibrium.
Journal ArticleDOI
How Hertzian Solitary Waves Interact with Boundaries in a 1D Granular Medium
TL;DR: This work designs a nonintrusive force sensor to measure the impulse as it propagates along the chain of beads and finds, for the first time, precise quantitative agreements on solitary wave propagation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solitary wave trains in granular chains: experiments, theory and simulations
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the unloading of compression force at the chain edge has a nearly exponential decrease, and the characteristic time is mainly a function involving the grains' masses and the striker mass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solitary wave trains in granular chains: Experiments, theory and simulations
TL;DR: The features of solitary waves observed in horizontal monodisperse chain of barely touching beads not only depend on geometrical and material properties of the beads but also on the initial perturbation provided at the edge of the chain this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decorated, tapered, and highly nonlinear granular chain.
Robert L. Doney,Surajit Sen +1 more
TL;DR: This Letter presents results in the form of normalized kinetic energy diagrams to illustrate the impressive mitigation capability of both original and improved tapered chains.
