The rich behavior of the Boltzmann equation for dissipative gases

M. H. Ernst, E. Trizac, A. Barrat

Within the framework of the homogeneous non-linear Boltzmann equation, we present a new analytic method, without the intrinsic limitations of existing methods, for obtaining asympt…

Injected power and entropy flow in a heated granular gas

P. Visco, A. Puglisi, A. Barrat +2

Our interest goes to the power injected in a heated granular gas and to the possibility to interpret it in terms of entropy flow. We numerically determine the distribution of the i…

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…

Granular gases: dynamics and collective effects

Alain Barrat, Emmanuel Trizac, Matthieu H. Ernst

We present a biased review of some of the most "spectacular" effects appearing in the dynamics of granular gases where the dissipative nature of the collisions leads to a rich phen…

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…

Random inelasticity and velocity fluctuations in a driven granular gas

Alain Barrat, Emmanuel Trizac

We analyze the deviations from Maxwell-Boltzmann statistics found in recent experiments studying velocity distributions in two-dimensional granular gases driven into a non-equilibr…
