The prediction of the angle of repose for raised mounds of dry cohesive granular material is a long-standing problem in the natural sciences and in industry. Using numerical (particle-based) ...

Fine powders and granular materials are extensively used in industrial applications. To manage and to enhance processing techniques, these materials have to be exactly characterized. The ...

Introduction Have you ever seen video footage of an avalanche or landslide rolling down a hill? Why is it that at one moment everything seems fine then suddenly the mountain begins to slump? This ...

A heap is created when a powder is poured onto a surface. It is widely known that both the heap shape and the repose angle strongly rely on grain properties. Specifically, a non-cohesive powder forms ...

IT is well known that the friction of solids on snow surfaces is larger than on ice surfaces. The higher kinetic friction obtained on snow is attributed to the extra work done in displacing and ...

For an engine to survive all the rocking and rolling it produces, those forces need to be counterbalanced with equal—or at least nearly equal—forces. Today, most production-car engines with more than ...
