Shear profile in a dense packing of large grains
Alessio Quaresima, Andrea Plati, Andrea Gnoli +1
We investigate the shear of a dense bed of refracting supermillimetric grains confined within a transparent horizontal annular cell with a rotating top. The local time correlation…
Rescaling invariance and anomalous energy transport in a small vertical column of grains
Andrea Gnoli, Giorgio Pontuale, Andrea Puglisi +1
It is well known that energy dissipation and finite size can deeply affect the dynamics of granular matter, often making usual hydrodynamic approaches problematic. Here we report o…
Brownian motor in a granular medium
Riccardo Balzan, Fergal Dalton, Vittorio Loreto +2
In this work we experimentally study the behavior of a freely-rotating asymmetric probe immersed in a vibrated granular medium. For a wide variety of vibration conditions the probe…
