particle collision

Previouselemental dampingNextresponse history analysis of an elastic coupled wall

Last updated 2 years ago

In this example, we illustrate the contact problem by simulating a 2D particle collision problem. The model can be downloaded .

General Information

The container is assumed to be a square with edge length of 101010. A certain number of nodes are randomly generated within the container with randomly generated initial velocities. A small program is written to generate the model script. One could compile the Generator.cpp file and run it with the number of particles needed. For example,

g++ -o Generator.exe Generator.cpp
Generator.exe 20

The model file will be generated as Collision.supan.

Collision

The collision force FFF is assumed to be a function of distance ddd between two particles.

F(d)=αln⁡(ds),F(d)=\alpha\ln\left(\dfrac{d}{s}\right),F(d)=αln(sd​),

where sss is the approximate size of particles, α\alphaα is a factor that can be used to adjust response. To define such a collision, one can use

particlecollision2d 1 2.

in which s=2s=2s=2 and α\alphaα is defaulted to be unity.

Container Boundary

The four edges of the container can be assigned by using the rigid wall constraint. For example,

rigidwall 2 5 0 -1 0
rigidwall 3 0 5 0 -1
rigidwall 4 -5 0 1 0
rigidwall 5 0 -5 0 1

Other Caveats

It shall be noted that a full matrix storage scheme shall be enabled to perform a collision simulation, since any two particles can collide with each other based on different initial conditions, there is no way to obtain a sparse/banded matrix in advance.

set band_mat false
set symm_mat false

Output

The global kinetic energy can be recorded by using

hdf5recorder 1 Global KE

Besides, it may be helpful to visualize the collision progress, to do that, a Visualisation recorder can be defined.

hdf5recorder 2 Visualisation U every 20 width 4

Result

The kinetic energy history is obtained as follows. It can be seen that the total energy level is increasing with the number of collisions. The parameters can be further adjusted for more realistic results. Here the model is presented for the purpose of illustration.

The animation is presented as follows.
