Megaripple mechanics: bimodal transport ingrained in bimodal sands
Katharina Tholen, Thomas Pähtz, Hezi Yizhaq +2
Aeolian sand transport is a major process shaping landscapes on Earth and on diverse celestial bodies. Conditions favoring bimodal sand transport, with fine-grain saltation driving…

Fluid-particle interaction regimes during the evolution of turbidity currents from a coupled LES/DEM model
Jiafeng Xie, Peng Hu, Thomas Pähtz +2
In this paper, fluid-particle interactions in lock-exchange turbidity currents (TCs) over a flat bed are investigated using a model combining LES and DEM (Large-Eddy Simulation and…

Scaling laws for planetary sediment transport from DEM-RANS numerical simulations
Thomas Pähtz, Orencio Duŕan
We use an established discrete element method (DEM) Reynolds-averaged Navier--Stokes (RANS)-based numerical model to simulate non-suspended sediment transport across conditions enc…
