Granular Brownian motion with dry friction
A. Gnoli, A. Puglisi, H. Touchette
The interplay between Coulomb friction and random excitations is studied experimentally by means of a rotating probe in contact with a stationary granular gas. The granular materia…

Brownian ratchet in a thermal bath driven by Coulomb friction
A. Gnoli, A. Petri, F. Dalton +4
The rectification of unbiased fluctuations, also known as the ratchet effect, is normally obtained under statistical non-equilibrium conditions. Here we propose a new ratchet mecha…
