Dense Granular Flows down Inclines
Dense granular flows down inclines continue to defy understanding. However, the last three decades have witnessed progress in techniques and approaches that have moved the field closer to achieving ab initio predictions of practical relevance. Difficulties arise for three principal reasons. First, because granular flows dissipate mechanical energy on the particle scale, regions featuring a subs...
متن کاملEddy viscosity of cellular flows by upscaling
The eddy viscosity is the tensor in the equation that governs the transport of the large-scale (modulational) perturbations of small-scale stationary flows. As an approximation to eddy viscosity the effective tensor, that arises in the limit as the ratio between the scales ε → 0, can be considered. We are interested here in the accuracy of this approximation. We present results of computational...
متن کاملVelocity correlations in dense granular flows.
Velocity fluctuations of grains flowing down a rough inclined plane are experimentally studied. The grains at the free surface exhibit fluctuating motions, which are correlated over a few grain diameters. The characteristic correlation length is shown to depend on the inclination of the plane and not on the thickness of the flowing layer. This result strongly supports the idea that dense granul...
متن کاملClusters in dense-inertial granular flows
In the dense-inertial regime of granular flow, the stresses scale inertially, but the flow is dominated by clusters of particles. This paper describes observations of cluster development in this regime. Clusters were seen to form for both elastic and inelastic reasons: elastic when the shear rate pushes the particles together faster than the contacts can elastically disperse them, and inelastic...
متن کاملDynamical fluctuations in dense granular flows.
We have made measurements of force and velocity fluctuations in a variety of dense, gravity-driven granular flows under flow conditions close to the threshold of jamming. The measurements reveal a microscopic state that evolves rapidly from entirely collisional to largely frictional, as the system is taken close to jamming. On coarse-grained time scales, some descriptors of the dynamics-such as...
