Onset of mechanical stability in random packings of frictional spheres
Melissa Jerkins, Matthias Schröter, Harry L. Swinney +3
Using sedimentation to obtain precisely controlled packings of noncohesive spheres, we find that the volume fraction of the loosest mechanically stable packing is in…
Influence of friction on granular segregation
Stephan Ulrich, Matthias Schröter, Harry L. Swinney
Vertical shaking of a mixture of small and large beads can lead to segregation where the large beads either accumulate at the top of the sample, the so called Brazil Nut effect (BN…
Geometry-induced asymmetric diffusion
Robert S. Shaw, Norman Packard, Matthias Schröter +1
Past work has shown that ions can pass through a membrane more readily in one direction than the other. We demonstrate here in a model and an experiment that for a mixture of small…
