Particle segregation in dense granular flows

JMNT Gray - Annual review of fluid mechanics, 2018 - annualreviews.org
Granular materials composed of particles with differing grain sizes, densities, shapes, or
surface properties may experience unexpected segregation during flow. This review focuses …

Discrete simulation of granular and particle-fluid flows: from fundamental study to engineering application

W Ge, L Wang, J Xu, F Chen, G Zhou, L Lu… - Reviews in Chemical …, 2017 - degruyter.com
Multiphase chemical reactors with characteristic multiscale structures are intrinsically
discrete at the elemental scale. However, due to the lack of multiscale models and the …

Experiments on granular flow behavior and deposit characteristics: implications for rock avalanche kinematics

K Li, YF Wang, QW Lin, QG Cheng, Y Wu - Landslides, 2021 - Springer
Experimental dry granular flow with a flume configuration is a basic model used for
simulating rock avalanches. Despite the establishment of many empirical relationships …

Modelling size segregation of granular materials: the roles of segregation, advection and diffusion

Y Fan, CP Schlick, PB Umbanhowar… - Journal of fluid …, 2014 - cambridge.org
Predicting segregation of granular materials composed of different-sized particles is a
challenging problem. In this paper, we develop and implement a theoretical model that …

Modeling of particle size segregation: calibration using the discrete particle method

A Thornton, T Weinhart, S Luding… - International journal of …, 2012 - World Scientific
Over the last 25 years a lot of work has been undertaken on constructing continuum models
for segregation of particles of different sizes. We focus on one model that is designed to …

Underlying asymmetry within particle size segregation

K van der Vaart, P Gajjar, G Epely-Chauvin, N Andreini… - Physical review …, 2015 - APS
We experimentally study particle scale dynamics during segregation of a bidisperse mixture
under oscillatory shear. Large and small particles show an underlying asymmetry that is …

River-bed armouring as a granular segregation phenomenon

B Ferdowsi, CP Ortiz, M Houssais… - Nature …, 2017 - nature.com
River bed-load transport is a kind of dense granular flow, and such flows are known to
segregate grains. While gravel-river beds typically have an “armoured” layer of coarse …

Multi-component particle-size segregation in shallow granular avalanches

J Gray, C Ancey - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2011 - cambridge.org
A general continuum theory for particle-size segregation and diffusive remixing in
polydisperse granular avalanches is formulated using mixture theory. Comparisons are …

Theory for shear-induced segregation of dense granular mixtures

Y Fan, KM Hill - New journal of physics, 2011 - iopscience.iop.org
It is well known that a mixture of different sized particles will segregate in a gravitational field.
However, it has only recently been shown that a gradient of shear rate alone can drive …

Experimental investigation into segregating granular flows down chutes

S Wiederseiner, N Andreini, G Épely-Chauvin… - Physics of …, 2011 - pubs.aip.org
We experimentally investigated how a binary granular mixture made up of spherical glass
beads (size ratio of 2) behaved when flowing down a chute. Initially, the mixture was …
