Diffusion and mixing in gravity-driven dense granular flows.
We study the transport properties of particles draining from a silo using imaging and direct particle tracking. The particle displacements show a universal transition from superdiffusion to normal diffusion, as a function of the distance fallen, independent of the flow speed. In the superdiffusive (but sub-ballistic) regime, which occurs before a particle falls through its diameter, the displac...
متن کاملGrowing length scale in gravity-driven dense granular flow.
We report simulations of a two-dimensional, dense, bidisperse system of inelastic hard disks falling down a vertical tube under the influence of gravity. We examine the approach to jamming as the average flow of particles down the tube is slowed by making the outlet narrower. Defining coarse-grained velocity and stress fields, we study two-point temporal and spatial correlation functions of the...
متن کاملCellular automata model of gravity-driven granular flows
A cellular automata model is used to simulate a variety of granular chute flows. The model is tested against several case studies: flow down a chute, flow past an obstacle, chute flow in which complex, counter-rotating vortices result in streamwise surface stripes and flownear a boundary. Themodel successfully reproduces experimental observations in all of these cases. These results lead us to ...
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 کاملDriven granular gases with gravity.
We study fluidized granular gases in a stationary state determined by the balance between external driving and bulk dissipation. The two considered situations are inspired by recent experiments, where gravity plays a major role as a driving mechanism: in the first case, gravity acts only in one direction and the bottom wall is vibrated; in the second case, gravity acts in both directions and no...
