Granular discorectangle in a thermalized bath of hard disks
H. Gomart, J. Talbot, P. Viot
By using the Enskog-Boltzmann approach, we study the steady-state dynamics of a granular discorectangle placed in a two-dimensional bath of thermalized hard disks. Hard core collis…

Memory and Kovacs effects in the parking-lot model: an approximate statistical-mechanical treatment
G. Tarjus, P. Viot
The parking-lot model provides a qualitative description of the main features of the phenomenology of granular compaction. We derive here approximate kinetic equations for this mod…

From Car Parking to Protein Adsorption: An Overview of Sequential Adsorption Processes
J. Talbot, G. Tarjus, P. R. Van Tassel +1
The adsorption or adhesion of large particles (proteins, colloids, cells, >...) at the liquid-solid interface plays an important role in many diverse applications. Despite the appa…
