Mathematical models and numerical techniques for plasticity flows of granular media.

A mathematical study has been undertaken to model various kinds of granular flows including the perfect plasticity flow and the viscous elasto-plasticity flow. The work is mainly based on the double-shearing theory originated by Spencer and developed by many others. The focus of the project is on th...
