Bespoke particle shapes in granular matter
Among granular matter, one type of particle has special properties. Upon being assembled in disordered configurations, these particles interlock, hook, almost braid, and – surprisingly, considering their relatively low packing fractions – show exceptional shear strength. Such is the case of non-con...
