A comprehensive and integrated review of the hypergravity field applied to solidifying alloys
is provided. The hypergravity field refers to an environment in which the acceleration of …

Flow-structure interaction has raised significant attention among geotechnical community
because it is important for prevention of high-speed flowing geo-disasters. Physical …

The centrifuge modeling of the impact dynamics of high-speed granular flows is important for
understanding debris–barrier interactions. However, it remains challenging owing to the …

The impact behavior of superspeed granular flows is not sufficiently understood, although it
is the basis for establishing an impact model, which is important in barrier design. Centrifuge …

Loose saturated granular materials are particularly susceptible to instability, resulting in
deviatoric strain softening, and static liquefaction. When instability occurs in the context of a …

This article explores the flow field changes and micro vortex formation mechanisms caused
by coagulation and sedimentation of coal slurry flocs of different sizes. The collision …

Granular flows are typically studied in laboratory flumes based on common similarity scaling,
which create stress fields that only roughly approximate field conditions. The geotechnical …

Numerous industries are concerned by the humanitarian, environmental, and economic
consequences of debris flows, landslides, and material run-outs. However, the run-out …

This study investigates the dynamics of granular flows in geotechnical centrifuge models,
focusing on the effects of centrifugal and Coriolis accelerations. While conventional …

Centrifuge modeling allows granular flows to be simulated under stresses characteristic of
full-scale flows, while maintaining repeatability. However, the impact of the Coriolis effect on …
