Since its invention about a decade ago, dynamic multiple light scattering has found many
applications in various areas of soft condensed matter science. It has become a particularly …

The behaviour of dense assemblies of dry grains submitted to continuous shear deformation
has been the subject of many experiments and discrete particle simulations. This paper is a …

This paper reviews recent developments in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) which
enable it to follow particle motion in fluidized beds. Imaging with a spatial resolution of 400 …

We study the scheme of formal arcs on a singular algebraic variety and its images under
truncations. We prove a rationality result for the Poincare series of these images which is an …

Pebble-bed nuclear reactor technology, which is currently being revived around the world,
raises fundamental questions about dense granular flow in silos. A typical reactor core is …

Dynamic light-scattering techniques provide noninvasive probes of diverse media, such as
colloidal suspensions, granular materials, or foams. In homodyne photon correlation …

The particle dynamics and shear forces of granular matter in a Couette geometry are
determined experimentally. The normalized tangential velocity V (y) declines strongly with …

We analyze the main features of granular shear flow through experimental measurements in
a Couette geometry and a comparison to a locally Newtonian, continuum model of granular …

The Discrete Element Model (DEM) is a very promising modelling strategy for two-phase
granular systems. However, owing to a lack of experimental measurements, validation of …

An investigation into the granular temperature distributions of a binary vibrofluidized
granular bed has been conducted using positron emission particle tracking. By repeating …
