摘要
We performed a parametric study of the drag on vertical intruders with uniform cross sections of different sizes and shapes, from which we developed a semiempirical model. Baffling techniques were used to isolate the contributions of the intruder's different subsurfaces, and we observed size effects and force focusing on edges. We propose a boundary layer approach, whereby the drag is the surface integral of an effective stress over a monolayer of particles contacting the intruder. The stress has a simple lithostatic dependence and is a function of the orientation relative to the intruder's direction of motion. This approach is experimentally verified and is consistent with the semiempirical model.
