Force on a sphere suspended in flowing granulate
Jing Wang, Bo Fan, Tivadar Pongó +3
We investigate the force of flowing granular material on an obstacle. A sphere suspended in a discharging silo experiences both the weight of the overlaying layers and drag of the…
Elongated particles discharged with a conveyor belt in a two-dimensional silo
Bo Fan, Iker Zuriguel, Joshua A. Dijksman +2
The flow of elliptical particles out of a 2-dimensional silo when extracted with a conveyor belt is analyzed experimentally. The conveyor belt - placed directly below the silo outl…
Shape matters: Competing mechanisms of particle shape segregation
D. Hernández-Delfin, D. R. Tunuguntla, T. Weinhart +2
It is well-known that granular mixtures that differ in size or shape segregate when sheared. In the past, two mechanisms have been proposed to describe this effect, and it is uncle…
Discharge of elongated grains in silos under rotational shear
Tivadar Pongó, Tamás Börzsönyi, Raúl Cruz Hidalgo
The discharge of elongated particles from a silo with rotating bottom is investigated numerically. The introduction of a slight transverse shear reduces the flow rate by up to…
Coarse-graining amorphous plasticity: impact of rejuvenation and disorder
Botond Tyukodi, Armand Barbot, Reinaldo Garciá-Garciá +3
The coarse-graining of amorphous plasticity from the atomistic to the mesoscopic scale is studied in the framework of a simple scalar elasto-plastic model. Building on recent resul…
Discharge of elongated grains from silo with rotating bottom
Kiwing To, Yi-Kai Mo, Tivadar Pongó +1
We study the flow of elongated grains (wooden pegs of length =20 mm with circular cross section of diameter =6 and 8 mm) from a silo with a rotating bottom and a circular o…
