Bidisperse beds sheared by viscous fluids: Grain segregation and bed hardening
Jaime Oswaldo Gonzalez Maya, Fernando David Cúñez Benalcázar, Erick de Moraes Franklin
When a granular bed is sheared by a fluid that flows above a critical limit, it undergoes a complex motion that varies along time: it can contain fluid- (bedload) and solid-like (c…
Miniaturized gas-solid fluidized beds
Fernando David Cúñez Benalcázar, Erick de Moraes Franklin
Fluidized beds are suspensions of grains by ascending fluids in tubes, and are commonly used in industry given their high rates of mass and heat transfers between the solids and fl…
Propagation and attenuation of pulses driven by low velocity normal impacts in granular media
A. C. Quillen, Max Neiderbach, Bingcheng Suo +7
We carry out experiments of low velocity normal impacts into granular materials that fill an approximately cylindrical 42 litre tub. Motions in the granular medium are tracked with…
Register-Like Storage Block Used as Cluster Buffers, Histograms, and Hough Transform Accumulators for HEP Trigger Systems
Jinyuan Wu
In high energy physics experiment trigger systems, block memories are utilized for various purposes, especially in binned searching algorithms. In these algorithms, the storages ar…
Growth of barchan dunes of bidispersed granular mixtures
Carlos Azael Alvarez Zambrano, Fernando David Cúñez Benalcázar, Erick de Moraes Franklin
Barchans are dunes of crescentic shape found on Earth, Mars and other celestial bodies, growing usually on polydisperse granular beds. In this Letter, we investigate experimentally…
Motion and clustering of bonded particles in narrow solid-liquid fluidized beds
Fernando David Cúñez, Nicolao Cerqueira Lima, Erick de Moraes Franklin
This paper presents an experimental and numerical investigation of solid-liquid fluidized beds consisting of bonded spheres in very narrow tubes, i.e., when the ratio between the t…
Crystallization and jamming in narrow fluidized beds
Fernando David Cúñez, Erick de Moraes Franklin
A fluidized bed is basically a suspension of granular material by an ascending fluid in a tube, and it has a rich dynamics that includes clustering and pattern formation. When the…
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…
Turbulent channel flow perturbed by triangular ripples
Fernando David Cúñez Benalcázar, Gabriel Victor Gomes de Oliveira, Erick de Moraes Franklin
This paper presents an experimental investigation of the perturbation of a turbulent closed-conduit flow by two-dimensional triangular ripples. Two ripple configurations were emplo…
