A phase separation of fluidized granular matter is presented. Molecular dynamics
simulations of a system of grains in two spatial dimensions, with a vibrating wall and without …

Molecular dynamics simulations of the inelastic hard sphere model for granular media have
been done to study the heat conduction between two parallel plates. The results show that …

Controlling unwanted segregation of components within a particle mixture is a longstanding
goal in particle processing technologies. We investigate flow-induced clustering and …

Density inhomogeneities in granular flows can dramatically influence microscopic and
macroscopic properties. Here, we numerically examine dilute rapid granular flows in the …

Phase separation in a fluidized granular system is studied. We consider a one-dimensional
hydrodynamic model that mimics a two-dimensional fluidized granular system with a …

It is known that a finite-size homogeneous granular fluid develops a hydrodynamiclike
instability when dissipation crosses a threshold value. This instability is analyzed in terms of …

Large-scale numerical simulations of a system of inelastic, rough, hard spheres of volume
fraction φ s= 0.565, which are initially distributed randomly in a Couette geometry, show …

We propose a model to describe the quasistatic shearing of dry granular materials, which
notably captures the differences in velocity profiles recently observed in 2 and 3D Couette …

Hard-disk simulations are used for two-dimensional rapid granular shear flows of circular
disks between two rotating cylinders. The intermittency effects associated with the rate of the …

A large-scale three-dimensional molecular dynamics type simulation study of dense
granular media was performed to investigate the flow dynamics of grains in a spinning …
