Stick-Slip Dynamics in a Granular Material With Varying Grain Angularity

Experiments, simulations, and theoretical treatments of granular materials typically feature circular or elliptical grains. However, grains found in natural systems often have flat faces that introduce local rotational constraints; these rotational constraints have been shown to affect, for example,...
