چکیده

We study shock wave formation and propagation in an experimental vertically driven quasi-two-dimensional granular gas. We measure the moments of the single particle velocity distribution as a function of space and time. The space-time fields of the velocity moments show acoustic waves with a serrated substructure on the scale of a particle diameter. We show that this substructure is the result of collisional transport in which sequential collisions each transport momentum and energy by one particle diameter.

Capturing shock waves in inelastic granular gases

Shock waves in granular gases generated by either a vertically vibrated granular layer or by hitting an obstacle at rest are treated by means of a shock capturing scheme that approximates the Euler equations of granular gas dynamics with an equation of state (EOS), introduced by Goldshtein and Shapiro [ J. Fluid Mech. 282 (1995) 75], that takes into account the inelastic collisions of granules....

Investigation of Dust-Ion Acoustic Waves in a Magnetized Collisional Dusty Plasma with Kappa Distribution Function for Electrons

The propagation of arbitrary amplitude dust ion acoustic waves (DIAWs) in a magnetized collisional dusty plasma including hot electrons, with kappa velocity distribution for electrons, warm ions and dust particles has been studied. In the presence of immobile massive dust particulates, DIAWs have been investigated through the Sagdeev pseudo-potential method. It is demonstrated that the amplitud...

بررسی تجربی و عددی میرایی موج انفجار با استفاده از پنل ساندویچی با هسته‌ی مواد دانه‌ای

The intrinsic properties of some materials, such as foams, porous materials and granular materials, are their ability to mitigation waves. In this study, we investigated the ability of granular materials in explosion-induced wave mitigation. The present study was carried out using numerical simulations with Autodyn hydro-code and experimental tests by shock tube. Two materials of sawdust and mi...

Experimental analysis of shock waves turbulence in contractions with rectangular sections

Formation of shock waves has an important role in supercritical flows studies. These waves are often occurring during passage of supercritical flow in the non-prismatic channels. In the present study, the effect of length of contraction wall of open-channel for two different geometries (1.5 m and 0.5 m) and fixed contraction ratio was investigated on hydraulic parameters of shock waves using ex...

Issw22 Plane and oblique shocks in shallow granular flows

Although the Savage-Hutter theory for shallow granular flows has certain similarities with the shallow water equations of hydrodynamics, shock waves have not been observed until relatively recently. In this paper laboratory experiments are presented, in which plane travelling shock waves and stationary oblique shocks develop. The experiments also show the formation of expansion waves and granul...
