Abstract
The shear modulus of jammed frictional granular materials with harmonic repulsive interaction under an oscillatory shear is numerically investigated. It is confirmed that the storage modulus, the real part of the shear modulus, for frictional grains with sufficiently small strain amplitude γ_{0} discontinuously emerges at the jamming transition point. The storage modulus for small γ_{0} differs from that of frictionless grains even in the zero friction limit, whereas they are almost identical with each other for sufficiently large γ_{0}, where the transition becomes continuous. The stress-strain curve exhibits a hysteresis loop even for a small strain, which connects a linear region for sufficiently small strain to another linear region for larger strain. We propose a scaling law to interpolate between the states of small and large γ_{0}.
