A chiral granular gas.
Inspired by rattleback toys, we created small chiral wires that rotate in a preferred direction on a vertically oscillating platform and quantified their motion with experiment and simulation. We demonstrate experimentally that angular momentum of rotation about particle centers of mass is converted to collective angular momentum of center-of-mass motion in a granular gas of these wires, and we...
متن کاملSelf-diffusion in granular gases: Green-Kubo versus Chapman-Enskog.
We study the diffusion of tracers (self-diffusion) in a homogeneously cooling gas of dissipative particles, using the Green-Kubo relation and the Chapman-Enskog approach. The dissipative particle collisions are described by the coefficient of restitution epsilon which for realistic material properties depends on the impact velocity. First, we consider self-diffusion using a constant coefficient...
متن کاملGranular transport in driven granular gas.
We numerically and theoretically investigate the behavior of a granular gas driven by asymmetric plates. The injection of energy in the dissipative system differs from one side to the opposite one. We prove that the dynamical clustering which is expected for such a system is affected by the asymmetry. As a consequence, the cluster position can be fully controlled. This property could lead to va...
متن کاملGranular fountains: convection cascade in a compartmentalized granular gas.
This paper extends the two-compartment granular fountain [D. van der Meer, P. Reimann, K. van der Weele, and D. Lohse, Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 184301 (2004)] to an arbitrary number of compartments: the tendency of a granular gas to form clusters is exploited to generate spontaneous convective currents, with particles going down in the well-filled compartments and going up in the diluted ones. We f...
متن کاملBrownian motion in a granular gas.
The dynamics of a heavy particle in a gas of much lighter particles is studied via the Boltzmann-Lorentz equation with inelastic collisions among all particles. A formal expansion in the ratio of gas to tagged particle mass transforms the Boltzmann-Lorentz equation into a Fokker Planck equation. The predictions of the latter are tested here using direct Monte Carlo simulation of the Boltzmann-L...
