Mixing and segregation of granular materials in chute flows.
Mixing of granular solids is invariably accompanied by segregation, however, the fundamentals of the process are not well understood. We analyze density and size segregation in a chute flow of cohesionless spherical particles by means of computations and theory based on the transport equations for a mixture of nearly elastic particles. Computations for elastic particles (Monte Carlo simulations...
متن کاملMonodisperse dry granular flows on inclined planes: role of roughness.
Recent studies have pointed out the importance of the basal friction on the dynamics of granular flows. We present experimental results on the influence of the roughness of the inclined plane on the dynamics of a monodisperse dry granular flow. We found experimentally that there exists a maximum of the friction for a given relative roughness. This maximum is shown to be independent of the slope...
متن کاملStability analysis of rapid granular chute flows : formation of longitudinal vortices
In a recent article (Forterre & Pouliquen 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 have proposed an instability mechanism based on the coupling between the flow and the granular temperature in rapid granular flows. In order to investigat...
متن کاملGranular gravitational collapse and chute flow
– 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 the flow, we propose that this collapse will lead to the formation of “granular eddies”, large scale condensed structures of particles moving coherently wit...
متن کاملGranular Flows
Those who have played with sand on the beach or with sugar in their kitchen are aware that a collection of solid grains can behave macroscopically like a liquid and flow. However, the description of this peculiar fluid still represents a challenge due to the lack of constitutive laws able to describe the rich phenomenology observed. In this paper we first review the properties of dry granular f...
