In contrast to a still common belief, a steadily flowing hourglass changes its weight in the course of time. We will show that, nevertheless, it is possible to construct hourglasse…

Coefficient of restitution and linear dashpot model revisited
Thomas Schwager, Thorsten Poeschel
With the assumption of a linear-dashpot interaction force, we compute the coefficient of restitution as a function of the elastic and dissipative material constants, k and gamma by…

Close-packed granular clusters: hydrostatics and persistent Gaussian fluctuations
Baruch Meerson, Manuel Diez-Minguito, Thomas Schwager +1
Dense granular clusters often behave like macro-particles. We address this interesting phenomenon in a model system of inelastically colliding hard disks inside a circular box, dri…
