The evaluation of impact forces exerted by flowing granular masses on rigid obstacles is of fundamental importance for the assessment of the associated risk and for the design of protection measures. Empirical formulae are available in the literature

Dry granular masses impacting on rigid obstacles: numerical analysis and theoretical modelling

Autor: Irene Redaelli, Francesco Calvetti, Claudio di Prisco

The assessment of the time evolution of the impact force exerted by dry flowing masses on rigid obstacles is mandatory for the dynamic design of sheltering structures and the evaluation of the vulnerability of existing structures. In this paper, the
