The physics of jamming for granular materials: a review

TL;DR: Experimental studies seeking to understand random loose and random close packings (rlp and rcp) and dating back to Bernal have probed granular packings and their response to shear and intruder motion, suggesting that rlp's are anisotropic and shear-jammed-like, whereas rcp's are likely isotropically jammed states.

Attractive particle interaction forces and packing density of fine glass powders

TL;DR: This work proposes a mathematical expression to estimate the packing fraction of fine polydisperse powders as a function of the average particle size and suggests that considering only viscoelastic and adhesive forces in DEM simulations may lead to incorrect numerical predictions of the behavior of fine powders.
