The density relaxation phenomenon is modeled using both Monte Carlo and discrete element simulations to investigate the effects of regular taps applied to a vessel having a planar floor filled with monodisperse spheres. Results suggest the existence of a critical tap intensity which produces a maximum bulk solids fraction. We find that the mechanism responsible for the relaxation phenomenon is an evolving ordered packing structure propagating upwards from the plane floor.
