The effect of sidewall friction on dense granular flows
We present novel results on flow properties using molecular dynamics simulation as well as γ -densitometry experiments. We show that fundamentally different types of granular flow can be observed in one unique system. Using both frictional and frictionless confining walls, we show that the differences existing between these regimes originate in the frictional properties of the walls. The salien...
متن کاملGranular mass flows and Coulomb’s friction in shear cell experiments: Implications for geophysical flows
[1] Granular mass flows of rock fragments are studied in the lab by means of a high-speed video camera at 2000 frames per second. These granular flows are generated using beds of pumice fragments positioned on a rough rotating disk, whose angular velocity is controlled by a motor. The experimental apparatus allows an understanding of the arrangement of the particles in granular mass flows with ...
متن کاملDense 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 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...
