Dynamics of vibrofluidized granular gases in periodic structures
U. Marini Bettolo Marconi, Massimo Conti
The behavior of a driven granular gas in a container consisting of connected compartments is studied employing a microscopic kinetic model. After obtaining the governing equati…
Ordering phenomena in cooling granular mixtures
Ciro Cattuto, Umberto Marini Bettolo Marconi
We report two phenomena, induced by dynamical correlations, that occur during the free cooling of a two-dimensional mixture of inelastic hard disks. First, we show that, due to the…
Inelastic hard-rods in a periodic potential
Fabio Cecconi, Umberto Marini-Bettolo-Marconi, Fabiana Diotallevi +1
A simple model of inelastic hard-rods subject to a one-dimensional array of identical wells is introduced. The energy loss due to inelastic collisions is balanced by the work suppl…
