Download or read book Granular Gases written by Thorsten Pöschel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001-02-27 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Granular Gases" are diluted many-particle systems in which the mean free path of the particles is much larger than the typical particle size, and where particle collisions occur dissipatively. The dissipation of kinetic energy can lead to effects such as the formation of clusters, anomalous diffusion and characteristic shock waves to name but a few. The book is organized as follows: Part I comprises the rigorous theoretical results for the dilute limit. The detailed properties of binary collisions are described in Part II. Part III contains experimental investigations of granular gases. Large-scale behaviour as found in astrophysical systems is discussed in Part IV. Part V, finally, deals with possible generalizations for dense granular systems.

Book Computational Fluid Dynamics and the Theory of Fluidization

Download or read book Computational Fluid Dynamics and the Theory of Fluidization written by Huilin Lu and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-03 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for engineers and students to solve issues concerning the fluidized bed systems. It presents an analysis that focuses directly on the problem of predicting the fluid dynamic behavior which empirical data is limited or unavailable. The second objective is to provide a treatment of computational fluidization dynamics that is readily accessible to the non-specialist. The approach adopted in this book, starting with the formulation of predictive expressions for the basic conservation equations for mass and momentum using kinetic theory of granular flow. The analyses presented in this book represent a body of simulations and experiments research that has appeared in numerous publications over the last 20 years. This material helps to form the basis for university course modules in engineering and applied science at undergraduate and graduate level, as well as focused, post-experienced courses for the process, and allied industries.

Book Traffic and Granular Flow   03

Download or read book Traffic and Granular Flow 03 written by Serge P. Hoogendoorn and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-08-15 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These proceedings are the fifth in the series Traffic and Granular Flow, and we hope they will be as useful a reference as their predecessors. Both the realistic modelling of granular media and traffic flow present important challenges at the borderline between physics and engineering, and enormous progress has been made since 1995, when this series started. Still the research on these topics is thriving, so that this book again contains many new results. Some highlights addressed at this conference were the influence of long range electric and magnetic forces and ambient fluids on granular media, new precise traffic measurements, and experiments on the complex decision making of drivers. No doubt the “hot topics” addressed in granular matter research have diverged from those in traffic since the days when the obvious analogies between traffic jams on highways and dissipative clustering in granular flow intrigued both c- munities alike. However, now just this diversity became a stimulating feature of the conference. Many of us feel that our joint interest in complex systems, where many simple agents, be it vehicles or particles, give rise to surprising and fascin- ing phenomena, is ample justification for bringing these communities together: Traffic and Granular Flow has fostered cooperation and friendship across the scientific disciplines.

Book Studies on the Mechanics of Rapidly Flowing Granular fluid Materials

Download or read book Studies on the Mechanics of Rapidly Flowing Granular fluid Materials written by Daniel Martin Hanes and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work addresses the subset of flows of granular materials known as rapidly flowing, granular-fluid materials. Experiments were conducted in an annular, parallel plate shear cell with two primary goals in mind. The first was to investigate the existence of an internal boundary above which the material deformed rapidly, but below which the material remained rigidly locked in place. The second goal was to examine the constitutive behavior of rapidly flowing granular-fluid materials bounded by parallel, roughened plates. The constitutive theories of McTigue (1979) and Jenkins and Savage (1983) are applied to study the steady, rapid flow of a semi-infinite granular bed under the influence of gravity and traction applied to its surface. Analytic solutions based upon McTigue's theory and numerical solutions based upon Jenkins and Savage's theory both suggest that there is a finite thickness of motion in the bed.

With an emphasis on snow avalanches, this book provides a survey and discussion about the motion of avalanche-like flows from initiation to run out. An important aspect of this book is the formulation and investigation of a simple but appropriate continuum mechanical model for the realistic prediction of geophysical flows of granular material.

Book Mechanics of Granular Materials

Download or read book Mechanics of Granular Materials written by James T. Jenkins and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2017-05-03 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies in Applied Mechanics, Volume 7: Mechanics of Granular Materials: New Models and Constitutive Relations provides information pertinent to the fundamental aspects of the mechanics of granular materials. This book presents the theoretical and experimental studies of quasi-static deformations of granular materials. Organized into 30 chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the results on the description of a macroscopic stress measure and measures of the fabric of granular masses that support external loads through frictional contact. This text then introduces some quantities for the macroscopic description of mechanical and graphical characteristics of granular materials. Other chapters consider particle rolling, which appears to be a major microscopic deformation mechanism when interparticle friction is large. This book discusses as well the stress-induced anisotropy of granular materials that have initially strong anisotropic fabric. The final chapter deals with the interpretation of linear instabilities of voidage disturbances in fluidized beds. This book is a valuable resource for scientists, theoreticians, and experimentalists.
