On the global hydration kinetics of tricalcium silicate cement
Frank Tzschichholz, Helene Zanni
We reconsider a number of measurements for the overall hydration kinetics of tricalcium silicate pastes having an initial water to cement weight ratio close to 0.5. We find that th…
Error threshold in simple landscapes
Silvio Franz, Luca Peliti
We consider the quasispecies description of a population evolving in both the "master sequence" landscape (where a single sequence is evolutionarily preferred over all others) and…
Glassy behaviour in disordered systems with non-relaxational dynamics
Leticia F. Cugliandolo, Jorge Kurchan, Pierre Le Doussal +1
We show that a family of disordered systems with non-relaxational dynamics may exhibit ``glassy'' behavior at nonzero temperature, although such a behavior appears to be ruled out…
Density waves in dry granular media falling through a vertical pipe
T. Raafat, J. P. Hulin, H. J. Herrmann
We report experimental measurements of density waves in granular materials flowing down in a capillary tube. The density wave regime occurs at intermediate flow rates between a low…
On the Shape of the Tail of a Two Dimensional Sand Pile
J. J. Alonso, H. J. Herrmann
We study the shape of the tail of a heap of granular material. A simple theoretical argument shows that the tail adds a logarithmic correction to the slope given by the angle of re…
Fluid Induced Particle Size Segregation in Sheared Granular Assemblies
Sitangshu Bikas Santra, Stefan Schwarzer, Hans Herrmann
We perform a two-dimensional molecular-dynamics study of a model for sheared bidisperse granular systems under conditions of simple shear and Poiseuille flow. We propose a mechanis…
