Design optimization for 2-D granular media with dissipation
We propose an optimization scheme for the tailored dynamic response through a two-dimensional packing of spherical beads. Our goal is to minimize or maximize the reaction force at the desired bead contacts. Two design approaches are presented: introducing interstitial beads and prescribing initial …
