We consider the increase of the spatial variance of some inhomogeneous, non-equilibrium density (particles, energy, etc.) in a periodic quantum system of condensed matter-type. This is done for a certain class of initial quantum states…

The asymmetric simple exclusion process with additional Langmuir kinetics, i.e. attachment and detachment in the bulk, is a paradigmatic model for intracellular transport. Here we study this model in the presence of randomly distributed…

The transport coefficients of a dilute gas of inelastic hard spheres immersed in a molecular gas are determined. We assume that the number density of the granular gas is much smaller than that of the surrounding molecular gas, so that the…

A kinetic model for the elasto-plastic dynamics of a flowing jammed material is proposed, which takes the form of a non-local -- Boltzmann-like -- kinetic equation for the stress distribution function. Coarse-graining this equation yields a…

The statistical-physical study of granular matter is essential to understand, from a fundamental point of view, the many different phenomena emerging in these classical many-body systems. Under rapid-flow conditions, granular materials…

In spite of many attempts to model dense granular flow, there is still no general theory capable of describing different types of flows, such as gravity-driven drainage in silos and wall-driven shear flows in Couette cells. Here, we…

The motion of an immersed granular material in a channel is characterised by complex interactions among the grains, between the grains and the permeating liquid, and between the grains and the channel walls. Here, we develop a reduced-order…
