Mimicking layer inversion in solid-liquid fluidized beds in narrow tubes
Fernando David Cúñez Benalcázar, Erick de Moraes Franklin
This paper investigates experimentally and numerically the dynamics of solid particles during the layer inversion of binary solid-liquid fluidized beds in narrow tubes. Layer inver…
Horns of subaqueous barchan dunes: A study at the grain scale
Carlos Azael Alvarez, Erick de Moraes Franklin
Many complex aspects are involved in the morphodynamics of crescent-shaped dunes, known as barchans. One of them concerns the trajectories of individual grains over the dune, and h…
Shape evolution of numerically obtained subaqueous barchan dunes
Carlos Azael Alvarez Zambrano, Erick de Moraes Franklin
In the realm of granular bedforms, barchan dunes are strong attractors that can be found in rivers, terrestrial deserts and other planetary environments. These bedforms are charact…
Plug regime in water fluidized beds in very narrow tubes
Fernando David Cúñez Benalcázar, Erick de Moraes Franklin
The dynamics of granular plugs in water fluidized beds in narrow tubes is investigated here both experimentally and numerically. The fluidized beds were formed in a 25.4 mm-ID tube…
