Convective motion in a vibrated granular layer.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Velocity measurements are presented for a vertically shaken granular layer. For frequencies around 110 Hz and accelerations larger than gravity, the layer develops a convective motion in the form of one or more rolls. The velocity of the grains near the wall has been measured. It grows linearly with the acceleration, then the growth rate slows down. A rescaling with the amplitude of the wall velocity and the height of the granular layer makes all data collapse in a single curve.

Onset of flow in a horizontally vibrated granular bed: Convection by horizontal shearing
– We present experimental observations of the onset of flow for horizontally vibrated 3D granular systems. For accelerations Γ above Γ, the top layers of granular material flow, leading to convection with motion both parallel and transverse to the shaking; the lower part of the layer moves with the shaker in solid body motion. With increasing Γ, more of the layer becomes liquefied. The initial ...
متن کاملHexagons and interfaces in a vibrated granular layer
The order parameter model based on the parametric Ginzburg-Landau equation is used to describe high acceleration patterns in the vibrated layer of granular material. At large amplitude of driving both hexagons and interfaces emerge. Transverse instability, leading to the formation of ‘‘decorated’’ interfaces and labyrinthine patterns, is found. Additional subharmonic forcing leads to controlled...
متن کاملGranular Temperature under Segregation in a Vibrated Granular Bed
The dominant mechanism affecting the flow behavior of granular materials is the random motions of particles resulted from the interactive collisions between particles. The velocity fluctuations induce the segregation in granular flows. The different physical properties of granular material were used to investigate the segregation in a vibrated granular bed in this paper. The image processing te...
متن کاملControlled Dynamics of Interfaces in a Vibrated Granular Layer
We present an experimental study of a topological excitation, interface, in a vertically vibrated layer of granular material. We show that these interfaces, which separate regions of granular material oscillating with opposite phases, can be shifted and controlled by a very small amount of additional subharmonic driving mixed with the harmonic driving signal. The speed and the direction of the ...
متن کاملGranular Matter Instability: a Structural Rigidity Point of View
Granular materials are ubiquitous in nature and very common in industrial processes, but it is only recently that their unusual properties have begun to receive detailed attention from the physicists community [1, 2]. The earliest documented studies of granular matter date back to Faraday [3], who discovered the convective behavior of vibrated sand, and Reynolds [4], who noted that compactified...
