On a 1 - D granular media immersed in a uidJ

چکیده
In this paper a 1-D model for the evolution of inelastic particles in a thermal bath is studied. We derive an equation for the evolution of the probability density of the particles in phase space. The analysis of the homogeneous equation is the main objective of this paper. The existence and uniqueness of this equation is addressed. Finally, we prove that the asymptotic behavior is governed by a stationary solution of the homogeneous equation. A formal hydrodynamic set of equations is derived for the non-homogeneous case.

Multilaminate Elastoplastic Model for Granular Media
A multilaminate based model capable of predicting the behavior of granular material on the basis of sliding mechanisms and elastic behavior of particles is presented. The capability of the model to predict the behavior of sand under arbitrary stress paths is examined. The influences of rotation of the direction of principal stress axes and induced anisotropy are included in a rational way witho...
متن کاملCFD Modeling of the Feed Distribution System of a Gas-Solid Reactor
Granular flow simulation using CFD has received a lot of attention in recent years. In such cases, CFD is either, coupled with Discrete Element Method (DEM) techniques for appropriate incorporation of inter-particle collisions, or the Eulerian CFD approach is used in which granular particles are treated as they were fluid. In the present study, a CFD analysis was performed...
متن کاملDynamic self-assembly and patterns in electrostatically driven granular media.
We show that granular media, consisting of metallic microparticles immersed in a poorly conducting liquid in a strong dc electric field, self-assemble into a rich variety of novel phases. These phases include static precipitates: honeycombs and Wigner crystals; and novel dynamic condensates: toroidal vortices and pulsating rings. The observed structures are explained by the interplay between ch...

متن کاملGranular Flows
Those who have played with sand on the beach or with sugar in their kitchen are aware that a collection of solid grains can behave macroscopically like a liquid and flow. However, the description of this peculiar fluid still represents a challenge due to the lack of constitutive laws able to describe the rich phenomenology observed. In this paper we first review the properties of dry granular f...
