FE Analyses Based on Enhanced Hypoplasticity

  • Chapter
Confined Granular Flow in Silos

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Geomechanics and Geoengineering ((SSGG))

  • 1205 Accesses

Abstract

The numerical results on confined granular flow in silos using the FEM based on an enhanced hypoplastic constitutive model are summarized. Filling and emptying processes are taken into account. Quasi-static and dynamic flow is considered. A mechanism of the silo music is simulated.
