Precipitation reactions coupled to various transport phenomena, such as flow or diffusion, lead the formation of different spatial gradients which can be influenced by tuning experimental parameters (e.g.,...

We show that the structure of a dense, free-surface boundary layer granular flow is similar to the structure of a laminar liquid flow: There is a strong component of order (stratification parallel to the mean flow) superposed with a mild component of disorder (self-diffusion perpendicular to the mean flow). We also show that the self-diffusion coefficient scales with the mean velocity and propo...

Three-dimensional gyrokinetic simulations of microturbulence in magnetically confined toroidal plasmas with massively parallel computers showed that, with linear flow damping, an asymptotic residual flow develops in agreement with analytic calculations. Nonlinear global simulations of instabilities driven by temperature gradients in the ion component of the plasma support the view that turbulen...

The paper describes results of FE-simulations of confined granular flow in silos with and without inserts. The numerical analysis was performed with the help of an uncoupled Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) approach. The behaviour of the granular material was described with a non-local hypoplastic model. The FEresults of silo flow were compared with experiments in a large-scale silo. Both th...
