Increasing the Size of a Piece of Popcorn

Paul V. Quinn, Daniel C. Hong, J. A. Both

Popcorn is an extremely popular snack food in the world today. Thermodynamics can be used to analyze how popcorn is produced. By treating the popping mechanism of the corn as a the…

Hong et al reply to Canul-Chay et al

Daniel C. Hong, Paul V. Quinn, Stefan Luding

Canul-Chay et al. [1] have conducted the segregation experiment of binary granular mixtures in a bed and subjected the bed to vibration. They report that the reverse Brazil-Nut phe…

Hong et al. reply to Walliser

Daniel C. Hong, Paul V. Quinn, Stefan Luding

We find it absurd that Walliser [1] essentially used the same analysis and obtained identical results as reported in [3], yet arrived at different conclusions. Namely, based on an…

Variational Approach to Hard Sphere Segregation Under Gravity

Joseph A. Both, Daniel C. Hong

It is demonstrated that the minimization of the free energy functional for hard spheres and hard disks yields the result that excited granular materials under gravity segregate not…

Corrugation of Roads

Joseph A. Both, Daniel C. Hong, Douglas A. Kurtze

We present a one dimensional model for the development of corrugations in roads subjected to compressive forces from a flux of cars. The cars are modeled as damped harmonic oscilla…

Condensation of Hard Spheres Under Gravity: Exact Results in One Dimension

Daniel C. Hong

We present exact results for the density profile of the one dimensional array of N hard spheres of diameter D and mass m under gravity g. For a strictly one dimensional system, the…
