On the interaction of dilatancy and friction in the behavior of fluid-saturated sheared granular materials: a coupled Computational Fluid Dynamics--Discrete Element Method study
Bimal Chhushyabaga, Behrooz Ferdowsi
Frictional instabilities in fluid saturated granular materials underlie natural hazards, including submarine landslides and earthquake initiation. Experiments show distinct failure…
Soft matter physics of the ground beneath our feet
Anne Voigtländer, Morgane Houssais, Karol A. Bacik +24
Inspired by presentations by the authors during a workshop organized at the Princeton Center for Theoretical Science (PCTS) in January 2022, we present a perspective on some of the…
Glassy dynamics of landscape evolution
Behrooz Ferdowsi, Carlos P. Ortiz, Douglas J. Jerolmack
Soil creeps imperceptibly downhill, but also fails catastrophically to create landslides. Despite the importance of these processes as hazards and in sculpting landscapes, there is…
