Spontaneous Stratification in Granular Mixtures
Hernan A. Makse, Shlomo Havlin, Peter R. King +1
Granular materials size segregate when exposed to external periodic perturbations such as vibrations. Moreover, mixtures of grains of different sizes spontaneously segregate in the…
Modeling Urban Growth Patterns with Correlated Percolation
Hernan A. Makse, Jose S. Andrade, Michael Batty +2
We propose and test a model that describes the morphology of cities, the scaling of the urban perimeter of individual cities, and the area distribution of systems of cities. The mo…
Mechanisms of Granular Spontaneous Stratification and Segregation in Two-Dimensional Silos
Pierre Cizeau, Hernan A. Makse, H. Eugene Stanley
Spontaneous stratification of granular mixtures has been reported by Makse et al. [Nature 386, 379 (1997)] when a mixture of grains differing in size and shape is poured in a quasi…
Dynamics of Granular Stratification
Hernan A. Makse, Robin C. Ball, H. Eugene Stanley +1
Spontaneous stratification in granular mixtures has been recently reported by H. A. Makse et al. [Nature 386, 379 (1997)]. Here we study experimentally the dynamical processes lead…
Tracer Dispersion in Porous Media with Spatial Correlations
Hernan A. Makse, Jose S. Andrade, H. Eugene Stanley
We analyze the transport properties of a neutral tracer in a carrier fluid flowing through percolation-like porous media with spatial correlations. We model convection in the mass…
Microscopic Model for Granular Stratification and Segregation
Hernan A. Makse, Hans J. Herrmann
We study segregation and stratification of mixtures of grains differing in size, shape and material properties poured in two-dimensional silos using a microscopic lattice model for…
