Granular solid hydrodynamics (GSH) is a continuum-mechanical theory for granular media, the range of which is shown in this paper. Simple, frequently analytic solutions are related to classic observations at different shear rates,…

We provide a unified geometrical origin for both boundary charges and particle dressings, with a focus on electrodynamics. The method is furthermore generalizable to QCD and gravity, and can be extended to the non-perturbative domain.
