Notes:
The aim of the present study is to show that the developed particle dynamics method is able to describe important characteristics of powder assemblies. In the method, the interaction forces that are introduced between the particles are electrostatic attractive forces and elastic repulsive forces. Energy dissipation by friction at contact surfaces and damping during cohesive collision were also considered. Several numerical experiments on the angle of repose, packing and compaction are carried out. The initial position and the size of the particles are randomly distributed based on the Monte-Carlo method. The simulation results show that the method can be used to evaluate the effect of particle characteristics on flowability of powder assemblies.
