Fluidisation is the process by which the weight of a bed of particles is supported by a gas flow passing through it from below. When fluidised materials flow down an incline, the dynamics of the motion differ from their non-fluidised…
Hydrodynamic instability of a gravity-driven flow down an inclined plane is investigated in the presence of a floating elastic plate which rests on the top surface of the flow. Linear instability of the system with respect to infinitesimal…
