We report an experiment on a granular packing: a box filled with glass beads is tilted very slowly up to the maximum angle of stability where a big avalanche is produced. During the build-up period many rearrangements occur on the free surface of the packing. Digital imaging was used to study...

In this work we employ event-driven particle dynamics simulations for a system of spherical insulating grains interacting with an external electric field. This system resembles the electrostatic particle separation present on some industrial processes. Here, the particles collide inelastically...

Solitary wave solutions exhibited at the onset of the phase transition in fluidized granular matter are perused. In the quasi-sonic limit the system is modeled by two Korteweg de Vries equations. We study the solitary wave interactions in order to understand the rich dynamics exhibited by the...

Interparticle interactions in granular matter are commonly represented by appropriate graphs, therefore, inhomogeneities in granular matter can be possibly reflected by community structure in the respective graphs. Approaches and algorithms for community detection are being actively developed...

Granular media, fluidized by a vibrating wall, is studied in the high frequency (ω→∞) small amplitude (A→0) limit. It is shown that there exists an asymptotic regime such that if the product Aω5/4 is kept constant, then the behavior of the fluid in the bulk remains independent of the...

Granular gas-dynamic equations are written down and numerically integrated to study convection. For a two-dimensional gas of inelastic hard disks in a square box and under the effect of gravity, the equations predict buoyancy driven convection triggered by the dynamically created...
