A particle-in-cell formulation for large deformation in Cosserat continua
Abstract
We present a new approach to modeling of granular flows using a combination of Cosserat theory
for granular material and a particle-in-cell finite element method capable of handle extremely large material
deformation. Benchmarking against analytical solutions highlightsthe strengths and weaknesses of the method.
We demonstrate one application of the method in modeling the discharge of granular material from a silo.
