We present two-dimensional molecular dynamics simulations of cohesive regular polygonal particles. The cohesive part of the force-law for the particle–particle interaction is validated by the agreement with existing experimental data. We investigate microscopic parameters, which are not accessible to experiments such as contact length, raggedness of the surface and correlation time. With increasing cohesion, the particles move in clusters for long times.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
