This paper constructs the simplest model of granular matter such that the equations for the force distribution in the material can be derived and solved for simple geometries. This will be done by writing down an integral equation for the force field (which reflects the ability of athermal, friction
As an application of the model we have developed for the stress within a granular material we consider the force distribution within vertical and horizontal pipes. For a vertical pipe (with rough walls) the average forces in the system follow the arch of a catenary between the walls. For a horizonta
