Particle Size Effects in Flow-Stabilized Solids

Scott Lindauer, Carlos P. Ortiz, Robert Riehn +1

Flow-stabilized solids are a class of fragile matter that forms when a dense suspension of colloids accumulates against a semi-permeable barrier, for flow rates above a critical va…

Glassy dynamics of landscape evolution

Behrooz Ferdowsi, Carlos P. Ortiz, Douglas J. Jerolmack

Soil creeps imperceptibly downhill, but also fails catastrophically to create landslides. Despite the importance of these processes as hazards and in sculpting landscapes, there is…

Friction controls submerged granular flows

Juha Koivisto, Marko Korhonen, Mikko J. Alava +3

We investigate the coupling between interstitial medium and granular particles by studying the hopper flow of dry and submerged system experimentally and numerically. In accordance…

River-bed armoring as a granular segregation phenomenon

Behrooz Ferdowsi, Carlos P. Ortiz, Morgane Houssais +1

Gravel-river beds typically have an "armored" layer of coarse grains on the surface, which acts to protect finer particles underneath from erosion. River bed-load transport is a ki…

Nonaffine deformation under compression and decompression of a flow-stabilized solid

Carlos P. Ortiz, Robert Riehn, Karen E. Daniels

Understanding the particle-scale transition from elastic deformation to plastic flow is central to making predictions about the bulk material properties and response of disordered…

Rheology of sediment transported by a laminar flow

M. Houssais, C. P. Ortiz, D. J. Durian +1

Understanding the dynamics of fluid-driven sediment transport remains challenging, as it is an intermediate region between a granular material and a fluid flow. Boyer \textit{et al…
