The mechanism of long-term coarsening of granular mixtures in rotating drums
Tilo Finger, Matthias Schröter, Ralf Stannarius
Three fundamental segregation and pattern formation processes are known in granular mixtures in a rotating cylindrical drum: radial segregation, axial banding, and coarsening of th…
Heaping, Secondary Flows and Broken Symmetry in Flows of Elongated Granular Particles
Geert Wortel, Tamás Börzsönyi, Ellák Somfai +4
In this paper we report experiments where we shear granular rods in split-bottom geometries, and find that a significant heap of height of least 40% of the filling height can form…
Evolution of shear zones in granular materials
Balazs Szabo, Janos Torok, Ellak Somfai +6
The evolution of wide shear zones (or shear bands) was investigated experimentally and numerically for quasistatic dry granular flows in split bottom shear cells. We compare the be…
Effects of grain shape on packing and dilatancy of sheared granular materials
Sandra Wegner, Ralf Stannarius, Axel Boese +4
Granular material exposed to shear shows a variety of unique phenomena: Reynolds dilatancy, positional order and orientational order effects may compete in the shear zone. We study…
