Fluctuations of particle motion in granular avalanches - from the microscopic to the macroscopic scales
Ziwei Wang, Jie Zhang
In this study, we have investigated the fluctuations of particle motion, i.e. the non-affine motion, during the avalanche process, discovering a rich dynamics from the microscopic…

Spatiotemporal Chaotic unjamming and jamming in granular avalanches
Ziwei Wang, Jie Zhang
We have investigated the spatiotemporal chaotic dynamics of unjamming and jamming of particles in a toy-model system -- a rotating drum partially filled with bidisperse disks to cr…
