Nearly Complete Segregation of Submerged Grains in a Rotating Drum
Yu Chen, Deheng Wei, Si Suo +2
Density-driven segregations, extensively studied in a simple rotating drum, are enriched with a wide range of underlying physics. Diverse symmetrical segregation patterns formed by…
An unexplored valley of binary packing: The loose jamming state
Si Suo, Chongpu Zhai, Minglong Xu +2
We present a theoretical prediction on random close packing factor ϕ_RCP^b of binary granular packings based on the hard-sphere fluid theory. An unexplored regime is unravelled, wh…
Cyclic thermo-mechanical performance of granular beds: Effect of elastoplasticity
Si Suo, Marigrazia Moscardini, Verena Becker +2
Understanding the coupled thermo-mechanical behaviour of compacted granular beds can benefit various industrial applications, such as pebble bed design in fusion reactors. In this…
Fingering patterns in hierarchical porous media
Si Suo, Mingchao Liu, Yixiang Gan
Porous media with hierarchical structures are commonly encountered in both natural and synthetic materials, e.g., fractured rock formations, porous electrodes and fibrous materials…
Modelling imbibition processes in heterogeneous porous media
Si Suo, Mingchao Liu, Yixiang Gan
Imbibition is a commonly encountered multiphase problem in various fields, and exact prediction of imbibition processes is a key issue for better understanding capillary flow in he…
