Dense granular flow rheology in turbulent bedload transport
The local granular rheology is investigated numerically in turbulent bedload transport. Considering spherical particles, steady uniform configurations are simulated using a coupled fluid-discrete-element model. The stress tensor is computed as a function of the depth for a series of simulations varying the Shields number, the specific density and the particle diameter. The results are analyzed ...
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 کاملExperiments and simulations of a gravitational granular flow instability.
An instability is observed as a layer of dense granular material positioned above a layer of air falls in a gravitational field [Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 048001 (2007)]. A characteristic pattern of fingers emerges along the interface defined by the grains, and a transient coarsening of the structure is caused by a coalescence of neighboring fingers. The coarsening is limited by the production of ne...
متن کاملGranular Flow Simulations and Experiments for the Food Industry
Granular media are omnipresent in the food industry, whether as raw materials, intermediate or final products. While a lot has been done already in modelling food processes dealing with liquids, solid and gases, very little existed until now in granular flow modelling. The present thesis takes up the challenge of producing realistic granular simulations via DEM and validating them experimentall...
متن کاملContinuum modeling of secondary rheology in dense granular materials.
Recent dense granular flow experiments have shown that shear deformation in one region of a granular medium fluidizes its entirety, including regions far from the sheared zone, effectively erasing the yield condition everywhere. This enables slow creep deformation to occur when an external force is applied to a probe in the nominally static regions of the material. The apparent change in rheolo...
