An investigation of granular material movement due to instability post impinging upward fluid

Cluster formation due to collisions in granular material

a paradigm shift away from method-wise teaching to strategy-wise teaching: an investigation of reconstructive strategy versus communicative strategy

چکیده: هدف اصلی این مطالعه ی توصیفی تحقیقی در حقیقت تلاشی پساروش-گرا به منظور رسیدن به نتیجه ای منطقی در انتخاب مناسبترین راهکار آموزشی بر گرفته از چارچوب راهبردی مطرح شده توسط والدمر مارتن بوده که به بهترین شکل سازگار و مناسب با سامانه ی آموزشی ایران باشد. از این رو، دو راهکار آموزشی، راهکار ارتباطی و راهکار بازساختی، برای تحقیق و بررسی انتخاب شدند. صریحاً اینکه، در راستای هدف اصلی این پژوهش، ر...

Granular material flows – An overview

The paper attempts to give a critical overview of the field of granular flow with attention both to the history and the underlying physics that govern the field. It starts with a discussion of the basic transport mechanisms in a granular flow. It continues with a discussion of contact mechanics – the way that individual particles see each other mechanically. It then discusses the historical lim...

The Mechanical Coupling of Fluid-Filled Granular Material Under Shear

The coupled mechanics of fluid-filled granular media controls the physics of many Earth systems such as saturated soils, fault gouge, and landslide shear zones. It is well established that when the pore fluid pressure rises, the shear resistance of fluid-filled granular systems decreases, and as a result catastrophic events such as soil liquefaction, earthquakes, and accelerating landslides may...

Laboratory investigation of the frictional behavior of granular volcanic material

We report on detailed laboratory experiments designed to illustrate the frictional behavior of granular volcanic debris. The materials include pyroclastic flow debris from Soufrière Hills Volcano, Montserrat, and from Stromboli Volcano, Italy, and lahar deposits from Mount St. Helens. Experiments were conducted in a servo-controlled, double-direct shear apparatus under conditions of displacemen...
