Effect of air on granular size separation in a vibrated granular bed.
Using high-speed video and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) we study the motion of a large sphere in a vertically vibrated bed of smaller grains. As previously reported we find a nonmonotonic density dependence of the rise and sink time of the large sphere. We show that air drag causes relative motion between the intruder and the bed during the shaking cycle and is ultimately responsible for th...
متن کاملSize separation in vibrated granular matter
We review recent developments in size separation in vibrated granular materials. Motivated by a need in industry to handle granular materials efficiently and a desire to make fundamental advances in non-equilibrium physics, experimental and theoretical investigations have shown size separation to be a complex phenomenon. Large particles in a vibrated granular system normally rise to the top. Ho...
متن کاملGranular Temperature under Segregation in a Vibrated Granular Bed
The dominant mechanism affecting the flow behavior of granular materials is the random motions of particles resulted from the interactive collisions between particles. The velocity fluctuations induce the segregation in granular flows. The different physical properties of granular material were used to investigate the segregation in a vibrated granular bed in this paper. The image processing te...
متن کاملSpontaneous air-driven separation in vertically vibrated fine granular mixtures.
We report the observation of the spontaneous separation of vertically vibrated mixtures of fine bronze and glass spheres of similar diameters. At low frequencies and at sufficient vibrational amplitudes, a sharp boundary forms between a lower region of glass and an upper region of the heavier bronze. The boundary undergoes various oscillations, including periodic tilting motion, but remains ext...
متن کاملReverse buoyancy in a vibrated granular bed: Computer simulations.
We have performed molecular dynamics simulations of an intruder in a vibrated granular bed including interstitial fluid effects to account for the phenomenon of reverse buoyancy. We show that our model is able to reproduce the overall behaviour observed by previous experimental works and is the first finite-elements simulation to show the sinking of intruders lighter than the granular bed. To f...
