The mechanisms of segregation in solids mixing, even in simple rotating drums, are not
clearly understood. Although most past studies have focused on binary mixtures, this work …

The impact of particle properties on segregation and mixing of bidisperse granular beds in a
rotating horizontal drum have been studied by discrete element method (DEM) simulations …

The rich phase behavior of granular beds of bidisperse hard spherical particles in a rotating
horizontal drum is studied by Discrete Element Method (DEM) simulations. Several flow …

Particle shape impacts the flow behavior of granular material but this effect is still far from
being fully understood. Using discrete element method, the current work explores the …

Scaling relations for the velocity profile and circulation time, which can be used in design
and scale-up, are of great importance in rotating drums. We conducted simulations by …

Mathematical modelling based on the continuum assumption and the dense phase kinetic
theory is used in the work. It is found that the model captures the main features of solids …

The knowledge of the granular segregation phenomenon induced by size or density
differences in the ubiquitous polydisperse systems is important, hence numerous studies …

Rotating drums are widely used in the industry for mixing, milling, coating, and drying
processes. In the past decades, mixing of granular materials in rotating drums has been …

The axial mixing and segregation behavior of particles with different properties is a
complicated movement process, whose mechanism is still indistinct. Consequently, it is very …

Particle self-diffusion has a significant effect on mixing and thus on performance of rotating
cylinder systems such as rotary kilns and drum mixers. We study experimentally the radial …
