Flux through a hole from a shaken granular medium.
We have measured the flux of grains from a hole in the bottom of a shaken container of grains. We find that the peak velocity of the vibration, v max, controls the flux, i.e., the flux is nearly independent of the frequency and acceleration amplitude for a given value of v max. The flux decreases with increasing peak velocity and then becomes almost constant for the largest values of v max. The...
متن کاملTransition to a labyrinthine phase in a driven granular medium.
Labyrinthine patterns arise in two-dimensional physical systems submitted to competing interactions, in fields ranging from solid-state physics to hydrodynamics. For systems of interacting particles, labyrinthine and stripe phases were studied in the context of colloidal particles confined into a monolayer, both numerically by means of Monte Carlo simulations and experimentally using superparam...
متن کاملStochastic dynamics of a sheared granular medium
We experimentally investigate the response of a sheared granular medium in a Couette geometry. The apparatus exhibits the expected stick-slip motion and we probe it in the very intermittent regime resulting from low driving. Statistical analysis of the dynamic fluctuations reveals notable regularities. We observe a possible stability property for the torque distribution, reminiscent of the stab...
متن کاملDilute granular flows in a medium
Some aspects of the dissipative Boltzmann equation for granular matter diffusing in a background medium are investigated. Both collisions with field particles (supposed to be elastic) and inelastic collisions of the grains between themselves (with non–constant restitution coefficient) are taken into account, leading to the simultaneous presence of two different collision operators. The closure ...
متن کاملErosion dynamics of a wet granular medium.
Liquid may give strong cohesion properties to a granular medium, and confer a solidlike behavior. We study the erosion of a fixed circular aggregate of wet granular matter subjected to a flow of dry grains inside a half-filled rotating drum. During the rotation, the dry grains flow around the fixed obstacle. We show that its diameter decreases linearly with time for low liquid content, as wet g...
