The increasing necessity of challenging wellbore structures and drilling optimization for
improved hole cuttings cleaning has been growing along time. As a result, operator …

Characterization and prediction of the “flowability” of powders are of paramount importance
in many industries. However, our understanding of the flow of powders like cement or flour is …

Cemented granular materials, formed by pouring self-compacting cement into coarse
aggregate, have been widely used in geotechnical engineering. In this study, we developed …

The collapse of a quasi-two-dimensional column of cohesive granular media is investigated
experimentally and numerically in the framework of a continuum model. The configuration is …

Hypothesis The presence of colloidal particles on fluid interfaces can have a significant
impact on the rheology of solid-stabilized high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) …

We present a simple method to prepare a granular material with a controlled cohesion
between particles. The granular material is made of spherical glass beads coated with a …

Experimental and numerical pore network simulation studies on convective drying of
capillary porous media under slow isothermal conditions are presented in this work. As a …

Hypothesis: Sample-spanning particle networks are used to induce structure and a yield
stress, necessary for 3D printing of porous ceramics and paints. In capillary suspensions, a …

The liquid distribution of unsaturated wet granular media composed of granular materials
and Newtonian fluid has been in detail studied. However, when a granular material is mixed …

We investigate the impact dynamics of a single wet agglomerate composed of primary
spherical particles impacting a flat plane by using three-dimensional discrete element …
