Collapse of orthotropic spherical shells
Gautam Munglani, Falk K. Wittel, Roman Vetter +2
We report on the buckling and subsequent collapse of orthotropic elastic spherical shells under volume and pressure control. Going far beyond what is known for isotropic shells, a…
Tomographic Study of Internal Erosion of Particle Flows in Porous Media
Filippo Bianchi, Falk K. Wittel, Marcel Thielmann +2
In particle-laden flows through porous media, porosity and permeability are significantly affected by the deposition and erosion of particles. Experiments show that the permeabilit…
Tensile Stress Relaxation in Unsaturated Granular Materials
Filippo Bianchi, Marcel Thielmann, Roman Mani +2
The mechanics of granular media at low liquid saturation levels remain poorly understood. Macroscopic mechanical properties are affected by microscale forces and processes, such as…
Critical bursts in filtration
Filippo Bianchi, Marcel Thielmann, Lucilla de Arcangelis +1
Particle detachment bursts during the flow of suspensions through porous media are a phenomenon that can severely affect the efficiency of deep bed filters. Despite the relevance i…
