具有毛细作用的颗粒集料的非均匀结构

Heterogeneous structure of granular aggregates with capillary interactions

Michael Berhanu, Arshad Kudrolli

摘要:

我们研究了粘性颗粒物质的空间结构,这些颗粒漂浮在空气-液体界面上,形成无序的紧密堆积,其间有孔隙。在锥形容器中缓慢降低界面以均匀压缩并研究系统作为面积分数$ϕ$的函数。我们发现,与Voronoi细胞相关的自由区分布显示出显着的指数尾,表明更大的异质性与随机分布相比,在低$ϕ$与交叉向$Γ$-分布作为$ϕ$增加。此外,我们发现显着的短程有序测量的径向相关函数和取向序参数,即使在低和中间$ϕ$,这是不存在的,当粒子只相互作用的空间。

英文摘要:

We investigate the spatial structure of cohesive granular matter with spheres floating at an air-liquid interface that form disordered close packings with pores in between. The interface is slowly lowered in a conical container to uniformly compress and study the system as a function of area fraction $ϕ$. We find that the free area distributions associated with Voronoi cells show significant exponential tails indicating greater heterogeneity compared with random distributions at low $ϕ$ with a crossover towards a $Γ$-distribution as $ϕ$ is increased. Further, we find significant short range order as measured by the radial correlation function and the orientational order parameter even at low and intermediate $ϕ$, which is absent when particles interact only sterically.
