My papers on micromechanical analysis of stress transmission (strong and weak subnetworks), stress partition (force and fabric anisotropy) and scale-dependent nonaffine velocity fields (granulence) are among the most cited papers in the field. My two papers on force transmission in granular media in 1996 and 1998 have been cited more than 1000 times. I popularized the contact dynamics method for discrete simulation of granular materials, and developed advanced particle dynamics algorithms for complex granular materials. During the last 10 years,&nbsp;<strong>I carried out the first extensive parametric simulations of submerged granular flows, packings of polyhedral, elongated and nonconvex particles, and strongly polydisperse granular materials<\/strong>. I also analyzed the influence of such realistic material parameters on the rheological behavior (shear strength, dilatancy, anisotropy, connectivity). I was&nbsp;<strong>visiting scientist in MIT<\/strong>&nbsp;for three years, and invited by several prominent scientists to give seminars in Boston, Chicago, Durham, and New York City. In 2019, I have&nbsp;<strong>121 papers<\/strong>&nbsp;in peer-reviewed journals&nbsp;&nbsp;(including<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>3 review papers, 1 Sci. Rep., 7 Phys. Rev. Lett.),&nbsp;<strong>7 books<\/strong>, 31 book chapters,&nbsp;79 publications in proceedings, 254 communications in national and international workshops,&nbsp;<strong>67&nbsp;invited talks<\/strong>&nbsp;in national and international workshops,&nbsp;<strong>40&nbsp;invited seminars<\/strong>, 16 populariation articles,&nbsp;<strong>2 patents<\/strong>, and&nbsp;<strong>5 softwares<\/strong>&nbsp;(referenced by Renater).&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Farhang (Franck) RADJAI ORCID Webpage: orcid.org\/0000-0003-1376-7705 Scopus Author ID: 6602756776 Google Scholar: Citations EDUCATION 1998 \u00a0 Habilitation (HDR), Physics, University of Rennes 1, France 1995 \u00a0 PhD, Physics, Paris Sud University 1992 \u00a0 Master, Physics, Ecole Normale Sup\u00e9rieure-Paris Sud University CURRENT POSITION 2005-present \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Research Director (first class), Centre Nationale de la Recherche [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-6","page","type-page","status-publish","czr-hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lmgc.univ-montp2.fr\/perso\/franck-radjai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lmgc.univ-montp2.fr\/perso\/franck-radjai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lmgc.univ-montp2.fr\/perso\/franck-radjai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lmgc.univ-montp2.fr\/perso\/franck-radjai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/25"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lmgc.univ-montp2.fr\/perso\/franck-radjai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6"}],"version-history":[{"count":16,"href":"https:\/\/www.lmgc.univ-montp2.fr\/perso\/franck-radjai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":813,"href":"https:\/\/www.lmgc.univ-montp2.fr\/perso\/franck-radjai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6\/revisions\/813"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lmgc.univ-montp2.fr\/perso\/franck-radjai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
