MFIX Simulation Files for Granular Mixture Rheology Study

MFIX simulation files from a study published in Physical Review Fluids (2024) investigate granular rheology. The dataset contains input files and raw particle output files for pressure-controlled shear cell simulations. Simulations are categorized as MONODISPERSE, BIDISPERSE, and TRIDISPERSE, with parameters including confining pressure and plate velocity.

Use Cases

• Analyze particle velocity and force dynamics from VELOCITY* and FORCES* files exported at 10 Hz.
• Compare rheological behavior across MONODISPERSE, BIDISPERSE, and TRIDISPERSE simulation types.
• Study the effect of confining pressure and top plate velocity parameters on shear cell flow.
• Investigate granular mixture interactions using modified MFIX-18 code from the input files.

Strengths

• Simulations are based on peer-reviewed research published in Physical Review Fluids (2024).
• Includes both input parameter files and raw particle output data (VELOCITY*, FORCES*).
• Covers three distinct granular mixture types: MONODISPERSE, BIDISPERSE, and TRIDISPERSE.

Limitations

• Specific data volume, row counts, and column structures are unknown.
• Requires MFIX software expertise and potentially downloading core code from an external source to use fully.
• Data is specialized for granular physics simulations, limiting generalizability to other domains.
