Hazard and risk assessment of landslides with potentially long run-out is becoming more
and more important. Numerical tools exploiting different constitutive models, initial data and …

The physics of granular matter is one of the big questions in science. Granular matter serves
as a prototype of collective systems far from equilibrium and fundamental questions remain …

We elaborate on the impact of liquids upon the mechanical properties of granular materials.
We find that most of the experimental and simulation results may be accounted for by a …

The development of an applicable theory for granular matter—with both qualitative and
quantitative value—is a challenging prospect, given the multitude of states, phases and …

Using high-speed video and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) we study the motion of a
large sphere in a vertically vibrated bed of smaller grains. As previously reported we find a …

Granular mixtures with size difference can segregate upon shaking or shear. However, the
quantitative study of this process remains difficult because it can be influenced by many …

Segregation in Vibrated Granular Systems explains the individual mechanisms that
influence the segregation of granular media under vibration, along with their interactions …

Experiments involving a gas–solid, pilot-scale circulating fluidized bed (CFB) have been
carried out, with a focus on species segregation measurements in a riser. Three mixtures …

We present event-driven simulation results for single and multiple intruders in a vertically
vibrated granular bed. Under our vibratory conditions, the mean vertical position of a single …

When Portland cement is exposed to high temperature environments it experiences"
strength retrogression", which is characterized by the breakdown of the set cement matrix …
