We present a theoretical derivation of a rheology for dense granular flow, based on the process of inelastic collapse of neighboring particles. This collapse creates regions of correlated motion, which control the viscous behavior of the…
Dense suspensions are widespread in nature, manufacturing and process engineering. Particle-based simulations have proven to be an invaluable complement to experimental rheological characterisation, serving as a virtual rheometer that…
This study examines the flow of dense granular materials under external shear stress and pressure using discrete element method simulations. In this method, the material is allowed to strain along all periodic directions and adapt its solid…
The Granular Integration Through Transients (GITT) formalism gives a theoretical description of the rheology of moderately dense granular flows and suspensions. In this work, we extend the GITT equations beyond the case of simple shear…
Granular intrusion is commonly observed in natural and human-made settings. Unlike typical solids and fluids, granular media can simultaneously display fluid-like and solid-like characteristics in a variety of intrusion scenarios. This…
Granular materials do not flow homogeneously like fluids when submitted to external stress,but often form rigid regions that are separated by narrow shear bands where the material yields and flows. This shear localization impacts their…
This work presents a unified viscoelastic-viscoplastic continuum framework for modeling rate-dependent granular flows across regimes. The formulation incorporates two distinct rate-dependent mechanisms, namely micro-inertia and viscoelastic…
We present a novel moving immersed boundary method (IBM) and employ it in direct numerical simulations (DNS) of the closed-vessel swirling von Karman flow in laminar and turbulent regimes. The IBM extends direct-forcing approaches by…
Understanding the rheology of granular assemblies is important for natural and engineering systems, but the relationship between inter-particle friction (or microscopic friction) and macroscopic friction is still not well understood. In…
We study the rheology of dense granular materials subjected to vertical vibration {by} using numerical simulations of a stress-imposed vane rheometer. The effective viscosity increases with confining pressure, decreases with vibration…
Macroscopic and microscopic properties of dense granular layers flowing down inclined planes are obtained from Discrete-Element-Method simulations for both frictionless and frictional grains. Three fundamental observations for dense…
We have performed a systematic, large-scale simulation study of granular media in two- and three-dimensions, investigating the rheology of cohesionless granular particles in inclined plane geometries, i.e., chute flows. We find that over a…
This work generalises the granular integration through transients formalism introduced by Kranz et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 121, 148002 (2018)] to the determination of the pressure. We focus on the Bagnold regime, and provide theoretical…
Most Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) studies of hemodynamics in intracranial aneurysms are based on the assumption of laminar flow due to a relatively low (below 500) parent artery Reynolds number. A few studies have recently…
Modelling sediment transport is still a challenging problem and is of major importance for the study of particulate geophysical flows. In this work, the modelling of sediment transport in the collisional regime is investigated with a focus…
When dealing with unsaturated wet granular materials, a fundamental question is: what is the effect of capillary cohesion on the bulk flow and yield behavior? We inwestigate the dense flow rheology of unsaturated granular materials through…
Granular suspensions present a transition from a Newtonian rheology in the Stokes limit to a Bagnoldian rheology when inertia is increased. A custom rheometer which can be run in a pressure or a volume-imposed mode is used to examine this…
We briefly review the basics ideas and results of a recently proposed statistical mechanical approach to granular materials. Using lattice models from standard Statistical Mechanics and results from a mean field replica approach and Monte…
Employing the discrete element method, we study the rheology of dense granular media mixtures, varying in size, density, and frictional properties of particles, across a spectrum from quasi-static to inertial regimes. By accounting for the…
We study the deformation and dynamics of droplets in time-dependent flows using 3D numerical simulations of two immiscible fluids based on the lattice Boltzmann model (LBM). Analytical models are available in the literature, which assume…
