Abstract
The time dependent Ginzburg-Landau equation for a two-dimensional granular shear flow is numerically solved, where we study both the transient dynamics and the steady state of the order parameter. The structural changes of the numerical solutions are qualitatively similar to the shear bands observed in the discrete element method (DEM) simulation of the two-dimensional granular shear flow.
