A point force acting on a Brinkman fluid in confinement is always counterbalanced by the force on the porous medium, the force on the walls and the stress at open boundaries. We discuss the distribution of those forces in different…
Dense granular flows exhibit both surface deformation and secondary flows due to the presence of normal stress differences. Yet, a complete mathematical modelling of these two features is still lacking. This paper focuses on a steady…
