Viscoelastic material properties determine the contact mechanics of hydrogel spheres
Granular materials are ubiquitous in nature and industry; their mechanical behavior has been a subject of academic and engineering interest for centuries. One of the reasons for their rather complex mechanical behavior is that stresses exerted on a granular material propagate only through contacts b...
