Formulating Compressive Strength of Dust Aggregates from Low to High Volume Filling Factors with Numerical Simulations

Formulating Compressive Strength of Dust Aggregates from Low to High Volume Filling Factors with Numerical Simulations

Compressive strength is a key to understanding the internal structure of dust aggregates in protoplanetary disks and their resultant bodies, such as comets and asteroids in the Solar System. Previous work has modeled the compressive strength of highly-porous dust aggregates with volume filling factors lower than 0.1. However, a comprehensive …
