Surface instabilities in shock loaded granular media
The initiation and growth of instabilities in granular materials loaded by air shock waves are investigated via shock-tube experiments and numerical calculations. Three types of granular media, dry sand, water-saturated sand and a granular solid comprising PTFE spheres were experimentally investigated by air shock loading slugs of these materials in a transparent shock tube. Under all shock pre...
متن کاملApplication of the UASB inoculated with flocculent and granular sludge in treating sewage at different hydraulic shock loads.
The aim of this work was to investigate the resistance to hydraulic shock loads of flocculent versus granular sludge used in UASB reactors treating sewage with high solids content. Step-wise shock loads were conducted through decreasing HRT to examine the extent of reducing this parameter without significantly changing COD removal efficiency of the reactor. The lowest HRT of 4h resulted in only...
متن کاملHydrodynamic Model for Particle Size Segregation in Granular Media
We present a hydrodynamic theoretical model for “Brazil nut” size segregation in granular materials. We give analytical solutions for the rise velocity of a large intruder particle immersed in a medium of monodisperse fluidized small particles. We propose a new mechanism for this particle size-segregation due to buoyant forces caused by density variations which come from differences in the loca...
متن کاملOn the apparent particle dispersion in granular media
The apparent particle dispersion in a granular medium due to the combined effects of random granular arrangements and interstitial fluid flow was studied. The particle motion was a two-dimensional random walk on the transverse plane. The corresponding dispersion coefficient was found by sampling all possible trajectories with the aid of two granular media models. The theoretical results were ve...
متن کاملParticle-scale origins of shear strength in granular media
The shear strength of cohesionless granular materials is generally attributed to the compactness or anisotropy of their microstructure. An open issue is how such compact or anisotropic microstructures, and thus the shear strength, depend on the particle properties. We first recall the role of fabric and force anisotropies with respect to the critical-state shear stress. Then, a model of accessi...
