We investigate numerically how the motion of an intruder within a two-dimensional granular system affects its structure and produces drag on the intruder. We made use of discrete numerical simulations in which a larger disk (intruder) is driven at constant speed amid smaller disks confined in a rectangular cell. By varying the intruder's velocity and the basal friction, we obtained the resultant force on the intruder and the instantaneous network of contact forces, which we analyze at both the cell and grain scales. We found that there is a bearing network that percolates forces from the intruder toward the walls, being responsible for jammed regions and high values of the drag force, and a dissipative network that percolates small forces within the grains, in agreement with previous experiments on compressed granular systems. In addition, we found the anisotropy levels of the contact network for different force magnitudes and regions, that the force network can reach regions far downstream of the intruder by the end of the intruder's motion, that the extent of the force network decreases with decreasing the basal friction, and that the void region (cavity) that appears downstream of the intruder tends to disappear for lower values of the basal friction. Interestingly, our results show that grains within the bearing chains creep while the chains break, revealing the mechanism by which bearing chains collapse. (AU) | |
