This paper proposes two algorithms to (1) find the network of percolating contacts that control the response of loaded granular media, and (2) decompose this network into the individual force chains that comprise it. The new framework is demonstrated considering data from discrete element method simulations of a ribbed interface moving against a granular sample. The subset of contacts in the material that transfers load across the sample, namely the percolating contact network (\n                    <jats:inline-formula>\n                      <jats:alternatives>\n                        <jats:tex-math>$$G_{perc}$$<\/jats:tex-math>\n                        <mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\">\n                          <mml:msub>\n                            <mml:mi>G<\/mml:mi>\n                            <mml:mrow>\n                              <mml:mi>perc<\/mml:mi>\n                            <\/mml:mrow>\n                          <\/mml:msub>\n                        <\/mml:math>\n                      <\/jats:alternatives>\n                    <\/jats:inline-formula>\n                    ), is found using the maximum flow algorithm.

Results show that denser materials with increased force-chain centrality promote a higher density of force chains, which results in a higher macro-scale strength during interface shearing. The contribution of force chains in the network is revealed to be highly centralized, composed by a small set of strong and long-lived force chains, plus a large set of weak and short-lived force chains.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s10035-023-01314-1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,23]],"date-time":"2023-03-23T10:03:02Z","timestamp":1679565782000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Percolating contacts network and force chains during interface shear in granular media"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"25","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1248-499X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fernando","family":"Patino-Ramirez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Catherine","family":"O\u2019Sullivan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Daniele","family":"Dini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,23]]},"reference":[{"issue":"2","key":"1314_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"274","DOI":"10.1103\/PhysRevLett.77.274","volume":"77","author":"F Radjai","year":"1996","unstructured":"Radjai, F., Jean, M., Moreau, J.-J., Roux, S.: Force distributions in dense two-dimensional granular systems.
