We employ computations to examine transition in granular flow, right above an aperture, in a
silo draining under gravity. We show that the energy dissipation rate exhibits a well-defined …

The influence of silo width on dense granular flow in a two‐dimensional silo is investigated
through experiments and simulations. Though the flow rate remains stable for larger silo …

Gravity-driven particle flow through outlets with inclined angles and outlets with off-centred
positions is investigated numerically by discrete element simulations. The measured particle …

There are many studies on the effect of side wall friction on mass discharge rate (MDR), but
the physical mechanism is lacking. In this paper, by changing side wall friction of eccentric …

The granular sample immersed in a viscous fluid discharge through an orifice connecting a
pipe or no pipe has been numerically investigated. A two-dimensional fluid–particle model is …

The influence of hopper width on the dense granular flow in a two-dimensional hopper is
investigated by experiments and simulations. The flow rate remains constant for larger …

This work employs computations based on the discrete element method to examine the
gravity-driven flow of grains through apertures in a silo with two outlets positioned …
