Projectile interactions in granular impact cratering
E. L. Nelson, H. Katsuragi, P. Mayor +1
We present evidence for the interactions between a ball and the container boundaries, as well as between two balls, that are mediated by the granular medium during impact cratering…
What is the temperature of a granular medium?
A. Baldassarri, A. Barrat, G. D'Anna +3
In this paper we discuss whether thermodynamical concepts and in particular the notion of temperature could be relevant for the dynamics of granular systems. We briefly review how…
Observing Brownian motion in vibration-fluidized granular matter
G. D'Anna, P. Mayor, A. Barrat +2
At the beginning of last century, Gerlach and Lehrer observed the rotational Brownian motion of a very fine wire immersed in an equilibrium environment, a gas. This simple experime…
Extreme events driven glassy behaviour in granular media
G. D'Anna, P. Mayor, G. Gremaud +2
Motivated by recent experiments on the approach to jamming of a weakly forced granular medium using an immersed torsion oscillator [Nature 413 (2001) 407], we propose a simple mode…
