Numerical simulations of the collapse and spreading of granular columns onto an horizontal plane using the Contact Dynamics method are presented. The final shape of the deposit seems to depend only on the aspect ratio $a$ of the columns;…
Granular column collapse is a simple but important problem to the granular material community, due to its links to dynamics of natural hazards, such as landslides and pyroclastic flows, and many industrial situations, as well as its…
In this letter, we focus on the size effect of granular column collapses, which are potentially connected to the dynamics of complex geophysical flows, even if the link between microscopic structures of granular assemblies and their…
This paper investigates the effect of initial volume fraction on the runout characteristics of collapse of granular columns on slopes in fluid. Two-dimensional sub-grain scale numerical simulations are performed to understand the flow…
The dynamical behavior of the column that made up binary granular beads is investigated systematically by tracking the displacement of particles in the collapse process. An experimental setup is first devised to control the quasi-static…
Granular column collapses result in an array of flow phenomena and deposition morphologies, the understanding of which brings insights into studying granular flows in both natural and engineering systems. Guided by experiments, we carried…
We study experimentally gravity-driven granular discharges of laboratory scale silos, during the initial instants of the discharge. We investigate deformable wall silos around their critical collapse height, as well as rigid wall silos. We…
This paper deals with the experimental characterization of the collapse of wet granular columns in the pendular state, with the purpose of collecting data on triggering and jamming phenomena in wet granular media. The final deposit shape…
Liquid may give strong cohesion properties to a granular medium, and confer a solid-like behavior. We study the erosion of a fixed circular aggregate of wet granular matter subjected to a flow of dry grains inside a half-filled rotating…
Basal effects have important implications for the high mobility and long runout of granular flows such as rock avalanches and landslides. However, fundamental understanding of the basal effect in granular flows remains challenging due to…
We find the collapse of columns of granular rods to show range of behaviors that depends on particle aspect ratio (length $L$ to diameter $d$) and initial pile geometry (height/radius). For all aspect ratios $L/d$ below 24 there exists a…
The behavior of granular column collapses is associated with the dynamics of geohazards, such as debris flows, landslides, and pyroclastic flows, yet its underlying physics is still not well understood. In this paper, we explore granular…
We investigate, at a laboratory scale, the collapse of cylindrical shells of radius $R$ and thickness $t$ induced by a granular discharge. We measure the critical filling height for which the structure fails upon discharge. We observe that…
Inelastic grains in a flow under gravitation tend to collapse into states in which the relative normal velocities of two neighboring grains is zero. If the time scale for this gravitational collapse is shorter than inverse strain rates in…
In this note, we numerically and theoretically analyze the physical mechanisms controlling the gravity-induced spreading of viscoplastic elliptical metric objects on a sticky solid surface (without sliding). The two-dimensional collapsing…
Simulation results are presented on the collapse of granular columns composed of rod-like particles. Columns can be stable and free-standing if either the friction coefficient is large enough, or the rods long enough. Destabilizing…
In submerged sandy slopes, soil is frequently eroded as a combination of two main mechanisms: breaching, which refers to the retrogressive failure of a steep slope forming a turbidity current, and, instantaneous sliding wedges, known as…
We use both numerical and analytical approaches to study the dynamics of the gravitational collapse in the framework of the relativistic theory of gravitation (RTG). We use various equations of state for the collapsing matter and relatively…
A detailed characterization of avalanche dynamics of wet granular media in a rotating drum apparatus is presented. The results confirm the existence of the three wetness regimes observed previously: the granular, the correlated and the…
We study the avalanche dynamics of a pile of micrometer-sized silica grains in water-filled microfluidic drums. Contrary to what is expected for classical granular materials, avalanches do not stop at a finite angle of repose. After a first…
