We generalize the Integration through Transients (ITT) formalism to the non-equilibrium stationary state of randomly driven inelastic hard spheres. ITT was first developed for Brownian suspensions [1] and recently extended to thermostated Newtonian systems [2]. As a result we get generalized Green-Kubo-relations and an equation of motion for the transient density correlator.
Since the seminal work of Bagnold [3] it has been recognized that dissipative hard spheres (i.e. granular particles) have an unusual rheology. In particular, the shear stress σ varies with the square of the shear rate γ, i.e., Bagnold scaling, σ = ηγ2, holds. We will discuss the response to shear and the dependence on the degree of inelasticity and packing fraction. This includes the transient density correlator and the prefactor, η, of the Bagnold scaling relation. We will comment on the relation to the elastic [1,2] and the unsheared case [4], clarifying how Bagnold scaling emerges.
