The abundance of granular materials and powders that are being used in several fields,
along with their broad applications, requires a comprehensive understanding of both their …

We review flows of dense cohesionless granular materials, with a special focus on the
question of constitutive equations. We first discuss the existence of a dense flow regime …

Sand, rice, sugar, snow, cement... Although ubiquitous in our daily lives, granular media still
challenge engineers and fascinate researchers. This book provides the state-of-the-art of the …

This practical guide provides the best introduction to large deformation material point
method (MPM) simulations for geotechnical engineering. It provides the basic theory …

Granular materials are ubiquitous in our daily lives. While they have been the subject of
intensive engineering research for centuries, in the last two decades granular matter has …

There is a large amount of experimental and numerical work dealing with dry granular flows
(such as sand, glass beads, etc.) that supports the so-called-rheology. The reliability of the …

The article surveys the current state of our understanding of turbidity currents, with an
emphasis on their fluid mechanics. It highlights the significant role these currents play within …

This review article provides an overview of dry granular flows and particle fluid mixtures,
including experimental and numerical modeling at the laboratory scale, large scale …

The first detailed quantitative observations of the two-dimensional collapse of a granular
column along a horizontal channel are presented for a variety of materials. Together with the …

We describe laboratory experiments of granular material flowing over an inclined plane
covered by an erodible bed, designed to mimic erosion processes of natural flows travelling …
