As granular materials flow and settle, interactions among particles of different sizes or properties drive mixing and segregation, producing rich dynamics that reshape systems ranging from industrial hoppers to planetary surfaces. A…

Discrete element method is conducted to investigate the bidisperse dense granular flow having big and small grains in a two dimensional hopper. A half-circular dynamical force arch is observed above the outlet and Beverloo's law is verified…

Mixing of two fractions of a granular material in a slowly rotating two-dimensional drum is considered. The rotation is around the axis of the upright drum. The drum is filled partially, and mixing occurs only at a free surface of the…

Steady state dynamics of clustering, long range order, and inelastic collapse are experimentally observed in vertically shaken granular monolayers. At large vibration amplitudes, particle correlations show only short range order like…

Thin vortex tubes, with core sizes within the dissipation range, profuse in a homogeneous and isotropic turbulent flow. Their intersections with an arbitrary plane define, as a mathematical construct, a dilute gas of localized,…

Using numerical simulations we examine colloids with a long-range Coulomb interaction confined in a two-dimensional trough potential undergoing dynamical compression. As the depth of the confining well is increased, the colloids move via…

We consider the stability of a system of equations which are a singular perturbation of the incompressible rigid-plastic flow equations used to model granular flow. A linear stability analysis shows that solutions of these equations are…

Spontaneous stratification of granular mixtures has been reported by Makse et al. [Nature 386, 379 (1997)] when a mixture of grains differing in size and shape is poured in a quasi-two-dimensional heap. We study this phenomenon using two…

We present a molecular dynamics study of the jamming/unjamming transition in two-dimensional granular piles with open boundaries. The grains are modeled by viscoelastic forces, Coulomb friction and resistance to rolling. Two models for the…

We consider dry granular flow down an inclined chute with a localised contraction theoretically and numerically. The flow regimes are predicted through a novel extended one-dimensional hydraulic theory. A discrete particle method validated…

We add extreme driving to the Kob-Andersen kinetically-constrained lattice-gas model in order to mimic the effect of gravity on dense granular systems. For low particle densities, the current that develops in the system agrees at arbitrary…

We study the phenomenon of internal avalanching within the context of recently proposed ``Tetris'' lattice models for granular media. We define a recycling dynamics under which the system reaches a steady state which is self-structured,…

This work summarizes a series of studies on two-dimensional granular impact, where an intruding object strikes a granular material at high speed. Many previous studies on granular impact have used a macroscopic force law, which is dominated…

We used the discrete element method (DEM) to study the flow dynamics of a mixture of dumbbells and discs for two silo cases: 1. orifice situated on the lateral wall and 2. multiple orifices placed on the base of a two-dimensional silo. The…

Jammed granular media and glasses exhibit spatial long-range correlations as a result of mechanical equilibrium. However, the existence of such correlations in the flowing matter, where the mechanical equilibrium is unattainable, has…

In a recent article (Forterre, PRL, 2001), we have reported a new instability observed in rapid granular flows down inclined planes that leads to the spontaneous formation of longitudinal vortices. From the experimental observations, we…

A scalar constitutive law is obtained for dense granular flows, both in the inertial regime where the grain inertia dominates, and in the viscous regime. Considering a pair of grains rather than a single grain, the classical arguments yield…

We study the steady plane shear flow of a dense assembly of frictional, inelastic disks using discrete simulation and prescribing the pressure and the shear rate. We show that, in the limit of rigid grains, the shear state is determined by…

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…

In nature, granular materials fail in abrupt avalanches, earthquakes, and other hazardous events, and also creep over time. Proposed failure mechanisms for these systems are broadly framed as friction-limited. However, mechanical…
