Towards an optimization theory for deforming dense granular materials: Minimum cost maximum flow solutions

We use concepts and techniques of network optimization theory to gain a better understanding of force transmission in dense granular materials. Specifically, we represent a deforming granular material over the different stages of a quasi-static biaxial compression test as a series of representative...
