An experimental investigation of the force network ensemble

We present an experiment in which a horizontal quasi-2D granular system with a fixed neighbor network is cyclically compressed and decompressed over 1000 cycles. We remove basal friction by floating the particles on a thin air cushion, so that particles only interact in-plane. As expected for a gran...
