Abstract
The experimental realization and investigation of granular gases usually require an initial or permanent excitation of ensembles of particles, either mechanically or electromagnetically. One typical method is the energy supply by a vibrating plate or container wall. We study the efficiency of such an excitation of cylindrical particles by a sinusoidally oscillating wall and characterize the distribution of kinetic energies of excited particles over their degrees of freedom. The influences of excitation frequency and amplitude are analyzed.
