Flows of solid particles are known to exhibit a clustering instability—dynamic microstructures
characterized by a dense region of highly concentrated particles surrounded by a dilute …

A hydrodynamic description for an s-component mixture of inelastic, smooth hard disks (two
dimensions) or spheres (three dimensions) is derived based on the revised Enskog theory …

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 …

The physics of granular flows is a fascinating subject because a range of complex collective
behaviour arise from seemingly simple microscopic interactions between the individual …

The transport coefficients of a granular fluid driven by a stochastic bath with friction are
obtained by solving the inelastic Enskog kinetic equation from the Chapman-Enskog …

We study in this work a steady shearing laminar flow with null heat flux (usually called
“uniform shear flow”) in a gas-solid suspension at low density. The solid particles are …

The hydrodynamic Burnett equations and the associated transport coefficients are exactly
evaluated for generalized inelastic Maxwell models. In those models, the one-particle …

The transport coefficients of a granular binary mixture driven by a stochastic bath with friction
are determined from the inelastic Boltzmann kinetic equation. A normal solution is obtained …

The rheology of a two-dimensional granular gas under a plane shear is investigated. From
the comparison among the discrete element method, the simulation of a set of hydrodynamic …

We study the dynamics of a granular gas heated by a stochastic thermostat. From a
Boltzmann description, we derive the hydrodynamic equations for small perturbations …
